“…The marker for industrial enzymes was estimated to reach the value of 3.3 billion USD in 2010 and 10.5 billion USD by 2024, with a compound annual growth rate of 5.7% for the period of 2018 to 2024 [97]. In addition to the uses in these areas, they can be found in the environmental field as biomarkers [98] and bioremediation [99], among others; in the medical field as bactericides, for medical tests, in medical treatments, etc. [100].…”

The ocean is the habitat of a great number of organisms with different characteristics. Compared to terrestrial microorganisms, marine microorganisms also represent a vast and largely unexplored reservoir of bioactive compounds with diverse industrial applications like terrestrial microorganisms. This review examines the properties and potential applications of products derived from marine microorganisms, including bacteriocins, enzymes, exopolysaccharides, and pigments, juxtaposing them in some cases against their terrestrial counterparts. We discuss the distinct characteristics that set marine-derived products apart, including enhanced stability and unique structural features such as the amount of uronic acid and sulfate groups in exopolysaccharides. Further, we explore the uses of these marine-derived compounds across various industries, ranging from food and pharmaceuticals to cosmetics and biotechnology. This review also presents a broad description of biotechnologically important compounds produced by bacteria isolated from marine environments, some of them with different qualities compared to their terrestrial counterparts.

Pollution from industrial development has led to the production of various deadly substances of refractory classes such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, toxic dyes, pesticides, and heavy metals. Their toxicity and mutagenicity affect humans, plants, and aquatic organisms. Biodegradation, of course, takes place by fungi, which means that complex organic compounds are broken down into simpler inorganic forms. Although these organisms utilize these organisms as an energy source, bioremediation is a human-designed technology that uses microbes through techniques of natural attenuation, biostimulation, or bioaugmentation to enhance their capabilities to reduce pollutants. Various microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, algae, and protozoa can degrade environmental contaminant with promising capacity. In order for degrading fungi to achieve the highest biodegradation rate under optimal conditions, certain parameters must be set. These factors are biological factors such as bioavailability, nutrient availability, crop type and microbial type, and environmental factors such as pH, temperature, oxygen availability and contaminant concentrations. The biodegradation mechanism mainly depends on microbial enzymes such as oxidoreductases, hydrolases, peroxidases, oxygenases, proteases, lipases and varnishes. Genetically engineered microbes are used to further enhance contaminant remediation, ensuring safe biodegradation by commensal microbes.

“…This phenomenon is definately disturbing the microbial native genome entity (Gangar et al, 2019;Petsas and Vagi, 2019). Another aspect come into considerance, the change in microbial metabolism (Okino-Delgado et al, 2019), will release uncertain toxic compounds for the environment and health, indirectly acting as opposition microbial candidates in this context (Myhr and Traavik, 2002). Under the TSCA (Toxic Substances Control Act) (Gardner and Gunsch, 2020), the Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) programs (Pietro-Souza et al, 2020) of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (Leong and Chang, 2020;Saxena et al, 2020) moniters the environmental and health risks and releases premanufacture legal notice for the accreditation of field research outlines and prototypes (McPartland and McKernan, 2017;Khan et al, 2020).…”

Continuous contamination of the environment with xenobiotics and related recalcitrant compounds has emerged as a serious pollution threat. Bioremediation is the key to eliminating persistent contaminants from the environment. Traditional bioremediation processes show limitations, therefore it is necessary to discover new bioremediation technologies for better results. In this review we provide an outlook of alternative strategies for bioremediation via synthetic biology, including exploring the prerequisites for analysis of research data for developing synthetic biological models of microbial bioremediation. Moreover, cell coordination in synthetic microbial community, cell signaling, and quorum sensing as engineered for enhanced bioremediation strategies are described, along with promising gene editing tools for obtaining the host with target gene sequences responsible for the degradation of recalcitrant compounds. The synthetic genetic circuit and two-component regulatory system (TCRS)-based microbial biosensors for detection and bioremediation are also briefly explained. These developments are expected to increase the efficiency of bioremediation strategies for best results.
