Saccharification enzymes from hyperthermophilic bacteria and processes for their production |
March 12, 2002 |
| It has been found that Pyrococcus furiosus produces several starch hydrolyzing enzymes, both extracellularly and intracellularly, which retain their activity for several hours at or above 100.degree. C. These comprise an .alpha.-glucosidase, which has been highly purified, and amylol |

Proteolytic enzymes from hyperthermophilic bacteria and processes for their production |
February 21, 1995 |
| Cell-free extracts from Pyrococcus furiosus were found to possess unusually high levels of proteolytic activity as measured by hydrolysis of azocasein; loss in activity was only 30% after incubation for 24 hours at 98.degree. C. and the half-life of proteolytic activity at that tempe |
