Abstract
A great challenge for industrial chemistry during the next few decades will be the development of selective and sustainable processes. One contribution to this task is made by biocatalysts, because biochemical conversions are performed under selective and mild conditions. The foundation for the discovery of new biocatalysts is the enormous diversity of organisms.
