β-mannanase is an enzyme that is commonly expressed in environmental bacteria.It degrades hemicellulose found in plant material and recycles nutrients back into the environment.Because this enzyme sig
The Antarctic represents a largely untapped source for isolation of new microorganisms with potential to produce bioactive natural products.Actinomycetes are of special interest among such microorgani
We studied five strains of psychrotolerant Bacillus cereus(B.cereus)isolated from Antarctic snow(BCsn),ice(BCic),lake water(BCwr),sediment(BCsd),and soil(BCsl)samples in terms of their growth,biochemi
Random mutagenesis is commonly used to study gene function.The screening of mutants exhibiting specific phenotypes assists in the identification of phenotype-related genes.In the current study,we isol
Since 2002,we have been observing the mesosphere and lower thermosphere(MLT)region over King Sejong Station(KSS;62.22°S,58.78°W),Antarctica,using various instruments such as the Spectral Airglow Tempe
