Characterization of the Type 2 L-Asparaginase Gene in Thermohalophilic Bacterial from Wawolesea Hot Springs, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia.

<b>Background and Objective:</b> Type 2 L-asparaginase enzyme can be used as a cancer therapy agent and prevent acrylamide formation in food products. Enzymes produced by thermohalophilic bacteria can provide high activity at high temperatures so they are needed on an industrial scale. Hence, this study aims to determine the characteristics of the gene encoding type 2 L-asparaginase enzyme in the thermohalophilic bacterial isolate CAT3.
