• Bioprospecting for Novel Thermozymes in Metagenomic Libraries from Hot Springs 

      Escuder-Rodríguez, Juan-José (2021)
      [Abstract] Hot spring metagenomes are described as the DNA of whole microbial communities inhabiting high temperature inland water habitats. The focus of the present work was to search for thermozymes (that maintain their ...
    • Cellulases from thermophiles found by metagenomics 

      Escuder-Rodríguez, Juan-José; De Castro de Antonio, María Eugenia; Cerdán, María Esperanza; Rodríguez-Belmonte, Esther; Becerra, Manuel; González-Siso, María-Isabel (MDPI, 2018-07-10)
      [Abstract] Cellulases are a heterogeneous group of enzymes that synergistically catalyze the hydrolysis of cellulose, the major component of plant biomass. Such reaction has biotechnological applications in a broad spectrum ...
    • Production and characterization of an extracellular acid protease from thermophilic Brevibacillus sp. OA30 isolated from an Algerian hot spring 

      Gomri, Mohamed Amine; Rico Díaz, Agustín; Escuder-Rodríguez, Juan-José; El Moulouk Khaldi, Tedj; González-Siso, María-Isabel; Kharroub, Karima (MDPI, 2018-04-12)
      [Abstract] Proteases have numerous biotechnological applications and the bioprospection for newly-thermostable proteases from the great biodiversity of thermophilic microorganisms inhabiting hot environments, such as ...
