Description Traditional use of enzymes for food processing and production of food ingredients resulted in fast-growing
enzyme industries world over. The advances in technologies gave rise to exploring newer enzymes and/or modified
enzymes for specific application. Search for novel enzymes that can augment catalytic efficiency and advances in molecular
biology techniques including sequencing has targeted microbial diversity through metagenomic approaches for sourcing
enzymes fromdifficult to culture organisms. Such mining studies have received more attention in characterizing hydrolases,
their prevalence, broad substrate specificities, stability, and independence of cofactors. The focus on glycosyl hydrolases
from metagenome for their application in food sector is reviewed.
