Concluding Remarks 13 References 13 I. Introduction With recent advances in genomic and genetic engineering, interest in the use of biocatalysis for industrial synthetic chemistry is growing rapidly. Likewise, the range of characterized enzymes and the applica- tions of biocatalysts continue to expand (Rich et al., 2002). In particular, biocatalysis is starting to fulfill its promise as a key tool for the produc- tion of optically pure small organic molecules (for the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sector), in part due to the high chemo‐, regio‐, and stereospecificity and selectivity inherent in enzymatic reactions. In addition, the use of microbial (whole‐cell) catalysts containing these enzymes for biocatalytic synthesis is gaining considerable industrial interest. Microbial processes offer possibilities for biocatalysis, which cannot always be met by use of isolated enzymes. The cellular environ- ment protects the protein, which may lead to improved catalyst stability. Furthermore, reactions involving expensive cofactors [e.g., NADH 1 ADVANCES IN APPLIED MICROBIOLOGY, VOLUME 60 0065-2164/06 $35.00 Copyright 2006, Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

However, despite the increased interest from chemists in the appli- cation of enzymes and whole‐cell catalysts, it remains the case that the majority of biocatalytic processes implemented in recent years use isolated enzymes. In this chapter, the focus is on microbial conversions with particular emphasis on the

Dr. Bugliarello, Friends, Associates and Family of Sonya and Ernst Weber. It is my honor and privilege to speak on behalf of the dose members of the Weber family. Dr. Bugliarello, we are grateful to you and to Polytechnic for establishing the Sonya and Ernst Weber Scholarship Fund. The criterion for the awards - based on excellence and regardless of need is most appropriate. This is consonant with the lives of the Webers. They have searched for the good - for things of real value. And when things of value were discovered, they were able to recognize, cherish, nurture and reward them to assure their continuity and growth. Sonya and Ernst Weber are well known - both nationally and internationally, each in her and his own field. They have each been showered with honors for their achievements and contributions to a better way of life in our time and for the future to come - Ernst in the field of science as a physicist, engineer, educator and administrator; Sonya also in the field of science as a doctor of physical medicine and physical fitness.

The organism was aerobic, Gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, with a polar flagellum, and capable of growth at T temperatures as high as 61 6C. The major fatty acids of strain N2-214 were C16 : 0,C18 : 1 and cyclo-C19 : 0. The phylogenetic relationships of the strain, derived from 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, demonstrated it to be a member of the b-subclass of the Proteobacteria. The highest 16S rDNA sequence similarity of isolate N2-214T was to Azoarcus buckelii (91?9 %), Thauera aromatica (92 %) and Hydrogenophilus thermoluteolus (92?7 %). On the basis of phylogenetic analyses and physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics, it is proposed that isolate N2-214T (=DSM 15129T=LMG 21637T) represents a new genus and species, Tepidiphilus margaritifer gen. nov., sp. nov.

No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted, in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording, or otherwise, without the prior written permission of the publisher. This book was typeset in Zapf Elliptical by Henry Beitz using Microsoft® Word 2000 and Adobe® Acrobat 5.0. Preface A note from the editors Pauline Podlashuk, our great aunt, wrote these memoirs in the early 1960s when she was in her eighties. She sent them to a grand-niece in London, asking her to arrange for publication. In January 1965 the publishers Cassell and Company wrote back as follows: We have now given serious consideration to Dr. Pauline Podlashuk’s memoirs: ADVENTURE OF LIFE, and I am sorry to have to tell you that we shall not be able to accept it for publication. Your Great Aunt certainly had an eventful life, and the manuscript makes for interesting reading. Unfortunately too much work would have to be done on it before the manuscript was publishable – and this we could not undertake. … In editing these memoirs, we can endorse the publisher’s view that the manuscript was indeed interesting but needed a great deal of work. We tried to retain our great aunt’s voice and use her words and phrases wherever possible. Sometimes we changed sentences and then on a second (or third or fourth) reading, returned to her original. Chances are that when you come across wording that makes you sit up and take extra notice, and expressions that are considered 'politically incorrect' today, it is her original voice.
