Characterisation of a DNA ligase from an Antarctic metagenomic library
(University of the Western Cape, 2011)
A metagenomic gene library prepared from soil found beneath a mummified seal carcass in the Miers Valley, Antarctica, suggests an environment rich in uncharacterised biodiversity including enzymes with possible application ...
Gene Discovery in Antarctic Dry Valley Soils
(University of the Western Cape, 2008)
The metagenomic approach to gene discovery circumvents conventional gene and gene product acquisition by exploiting the uncultured majority of microorganisms in the environment. It was demonstrated in this study that ...
