Since environmental pollution is increasing, scientists try to find a sustainable way for its clean up and for environment protection. Due to increasing knowledge of genetics and recombinant technologies, recombinant enzymes have been increasingly applied for these purposes. This article deals with the possibilities of environmental treatment with different types of enzymes produced by P. pastoris. Environment is polluted mostly with pesticides, wastewaters, phenol compounds, plastics, toxic compounds, wastes from medical treatment, etc. All these compounds have to be eliminated considering the deteriorating biodiversity, human health, and condition of plants. Enzymes are an environmentally friendly way of such treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
