Summary: | An enzyme isolated from an extremophilic microbe, and a method for utilizing same is described, and wherein the enzyme displays optimum enzymatic activity at a temperature of greater than about 80 degrees C, and a pH of less than about 2, and further may be useful in methodology including the pretreatment of a biomass so as to facilitate the production of an end product.
L'invention concerne une enzyme isolée à partir d'un microbe extrémophile, et un procédé d'utilisation de celle-ci. L'enzyme de l'invention présente une activité enzymatique optimale à une température supérieure à environ 80 degrés C, un pH inférieur à environ 2, et peut être utilisée dans une méthodologie de type prétraitement d'une biomasse pour faciliter la production d'un produit final. |
