Unlocking the potential of biosurfactants: Innovations in metabolic and genetic engineering for sustainable industrial and environmental solutions.

Biosurfactants, synthesized by microorganisms, hold potential for various industrial and environmental applications due to their surface-active properties and biodegradability. Metabolic and genetic engineering strategies enhance biosurfactant production by modifying microbial pathways and genetics. Strategies include optimizing biosurfactant biosynthesis pathways, expanding substrate utilization, and improving stress responses.

Deciphering the microbiota of Tuwa hot spring, India using shotgun metagenomic sequencing approach.
