- The Biocatalytic Potential of Extremophiles and Extremozymes (2004, background): “Since pollution by heavy metals poses a threat to public health, fishery and wildlife, there has been an increased interest in developing systems that can remove or neutralize the toxic effects of heavy metals in soils, sediments and wastewaters (123).”

(2004, background): “In addition, several successful attempts to clone eukaryotic MTs (Metallothioneins) in bacteria for the cytoplasmic production and then for surface expression have been recently reviewed (Valls and Lorenzo, 2002) and shall not be dealt here in detail.”
