Question
Chapter 20, Problem 14TYU
Summary Introduction
To analyze: The thermostable enzymes and the various functions performed by them.
Introduction: Microorganisms can be found in single-celled form or as a colony of cells in a vast variety of habitats ranging from deep inside the sea, to the top of a mountain, to hot springs, to cold glaciers, to desserts, and so on. The physical and biochemically evolved in such a way that is able to survive in favorable to extreme conditions.

While bacteria can meet their nutrient needs and survive on acetic acid as a sole carbon source, human beings cannot. Provide a plausible explanation for this limitation in human beings.
In one final experiment, you add all the necessary components and program the thermocycler to cycle under the following temperatures
Denaturation 95 degrees, 30 seconds, Annealing 65 degrees, 30 seconds, Elongation 68 degrees 30 seconds

- One of your friends, Rasta, works at a local wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in his hometown. Despite the plant having several process steps, Rasta is adamant that the dominant process step is biological treatment which happens in a 500 m3 bioreactor. The water flows to the bioreactor at a rate of 1.6m3/minute. The conditions inside the bioreactor favor extreme production of nitrogen (N), from the degradation of amino acids found in the wastewater, during the first half of each day. By midday the concentration of nitrogen in the bioreactor is almost always 2 mg/L. Since nitrogen is regulated, Rasta must then get the concentration down to half of this concentration within one hour. The influent (into the bioreactor) has no nitrogen. Rasta has two alternatives to facilitate the process. The first option is to increase the throughput rate by 150%. The second option is to keep the normal throughput rate and add an adsorbent “pillow” that removes nitrogen with a rate of 0.01/minute.
