Enzymes and Bioconversions of Industrial, Pharmaceutical, and Biotechnological Significance
Abstract
Enzymes are an important part of industry due to their many favorable properties. The development of industrial enzymes has depended heavily on the use of microbial sources. Microbes are useful because they can be produced economically in short fermentations and inexpensive media. Screening is simple, and strain improvement for increased production has been very successful. In the 1980s and 1990s, microbial enzymes replaced many plant and animal enzymes. They have found use in many industries including food, detergents, textiles, leather, pulp and paper, diagnostics, and therapy. The development of recombinant DNA technology had a major effect on production levels of enzymes as their genes were transferred from native species into industrial strains. Over 50% of the enzyme market is provided by recombinant enzymes. In many cases, enzymes have also been used to carry out conversions that were synthetic in previous years. Accompanying this trend is the use of whole cells to carry out bioconversions. Bioconversions have become very important to industry especially because of the demand for single isomer intermediates.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
