Host-Vector Systems in Thermophiles

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Book cover Thermophilic Microbes in Environmental and Industrial Biotechnology

Abstract

The potential application of thermophiles and their enzymes for industry is enormous where the development of host-vector systems in thermophiles is essential. Compared to mesophilic organisms, the host-vector systems in thermophiles are lagging behind. However, in recent years a number of host-vector systems were developed for thermophilic bacteria and also for some archaea. Host-vector systems in thermophiles are more advanced than is commonly believed.

In this chapter, firstly, we introduce basic genetic methodology for host-vector systems in thermophiles including transformation, selectable markers, vectors, and hosts (recipient cells). We show transformation methods used for thermophiles, selectable markers that are effective for thermophiles, some Escherichia coli-host shuttle vectors, and important property of the host.

Secondly, we show the actual application systems for the host-vector systems in thermophiles, expression vectors, reporter gene systems, and targeted gene disruption (replacement) method.

Finally, we introduce some commercial and potential application of thermophile host-vector systems. Homologous and heterologous expression of the thermophilic proteins which were difficult to produce in full active form from mesophilic hosts was successfully developed in thermophiles, especially in T. thermophilus, and several hyperthermophilic archaea using their host-vector systems, “genetic and metabolic engineering,” were developed for biofuel production in thermophiles, especially in thermophilic ethanologens. And, directed evolution methods were developed for thermo-adaptation of mesophilic proteins in thermophiles such as T. thermophilus.
