Sumario:The use of genomics, metagenomics and high throughput proteomics to study the global regulatory responses that the biomining microorganisms use to adapt to their changing environment is just beginning to emerge. In this chapter, we will concentrate specifically on proteomics and metaproteomics as applied to these microorganisms and how new very interesting advances on the molecular physiology of biomining microorganisms can be obtained. This knowledge will most likely result in later improvements of industrial bioleaching processes.
