Extremophilic microorganisms are adapted to harsh environments, such as high or low temperatures, acidic or alkaline conditions, high salinity or high pressure. These microorganisms have evolved special enzymes that can work under these extreme conditions. These special enzyme are useful for various industrial processes that require high temperatures, pH changes, salt concentrations or pressure and have high commercial value.
