Different studies on a novel strain Bacillus sonorensis revealed potential enzyme production and their use in different sectors like food industries, waste management and medical sector. As industrially important microorganism, B. licheniformis shows close relation to B. sonorensis, about which little information is established. It is thus expected that, the information gained about enzymes from the novel Bacillus sonorensis will prove beneficial towards investigating the biotechnological significance of the microorganism, and the genomics and phylogenetic importance in relation to members belonging to Bacillus subtilis group. The summarization about significant enzymes obtained from the organism including hyper thermostable alkaline lipase, L-asparaginase, keratinase, complex cellulase and pectinase shows medical significance, environment friendly waste management and essential ecological process.
