A new hyper-thermostable carboxylesterase from Anoxybacillus geothermalis D9

Carboxylesterases are attractive biocatalysts for various industrial applications, especially hyperthermophilic carboxylesterases, due to their high tolerance toward extreme environments. Such ability confers many advantages, including cost-effectiveness and an increased manufacturing rate. In the c...
