内容説明

Some microorganisms only live and survive under extreme environmental conditions. This summary presents the results of a five-year research project launched to search the world's most extreme environments for such microorganisms growing under conditions of strong pH, temperature, salinity or pressure. Interesting extremophiles ("superbugs") found during this search were studied with respect to their DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids and polysaccharides as well as tolerance mechanisms, metabolic pathways and gene expression. In some cases, tough industrial enzymes stable at higher temperatures, or tolerating toxic industrial solvents such as toluene, were identified. Their unique properties, the contributors to this volume feel, are of help in establishing a new biotechnology.
