Q. Which country’s researchers extracted ‘Huc’ enzyme, which converts atmospheric hydrogen into energy?
Answer: Australia
Notes: The researchers from Monash University in Australia extracted the enzyme called Huc from a common soil bacterium, Mycobacterium smegmatis. This enzyme can convert atmospheric hydrogen into energy. This opens new possibility for new renewable and sustainable energy sources. It was able to retain its power to generate energy even when frozen or heated to 80 degrees Celsius.
