Physiology, Genomics, and Biotechnological Applications of Extremophiles

Extremophiles are organisms that live in extreme conditions.

Their ability of surviving in extreme environments is due to their unique physiological and genetic adaptations.

Extremophiles are harnessed for their extremozymes that have wide applications in biotechnology, pharmaceutics and industry.

Recent developments in genomics and proteomics have helped unravel the mechanism of survival, physiological adaptation and genomics structure of extremophiles.

This book covers the latest developments in understanding the physiology and biochemistry of extremophiles.

It gives a complete idea about the microorganisms in these groups along with their biotechnological applications and also discusses the molecular genomics and molecular aspects of the extremophiles.

It also presents detailed aspects related to newer applications of extremophiles in the industry will also be covered.

The study of extremophiles is gaining wide interest and this book bridges the critical gap in knowledge related to extremophiles.

This book is essential to anyone who is interested in studying the microbiology, biochemistry and application of these microorganisms.
