Synthesis of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) by Immobilized Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) Synthase [PDF]

open access: yesPolymer Journal, 2003
At present, biodegradable and biocompatible polymers are being widely sought by materials industries, and poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate) (PHA) appears to be one of the most promising material sources of such polymers. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is a typical PHA and has been investigated in detail.

Poly(3-mercapto-2-methylpropionate), a Novel α-Methylated Bio-Polythioester with Rubber-like Elasticity, and Its Copolymer with 3-hydroxybutyrate: Biosynthesis and Characterization

open access: yesBioengineering, 2022
A new polythioester (PTE), poly(3-mercapto-2-methylpropionate) [P(3M2MP)], and its copolymer with 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) were successfully biosynthesized from 3-mercapto-2-methylpropionic acid as a structurally-related precursor.

Ketone body 3-hydroxybutyrate as a biomarker of aggression [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Abstract Human aggression is a complex behaviour, the biological underpinnings of which remain poorly known. To gain insights into aggression biology, we studied relationships with aggression of 11 low-molecular-weight metabolites (amino acids, ketone bodies), processed using 1

Microbial degradation of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) in soils [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1993
The microbial degradation of tensile test pieces made of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] or a copolymer of 90% 3-hydroxybutyric acid and 10% 3-hydroxyvaleric acid was studied in soils incubated at a constant temperature of 15, 28, or 40 degrees C for up to 200 days.

Metabolic engineering of Escherichia coli for the synthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates using acetate as a main carbon source

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2018
Background High production cost of bioplastics polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) is a major obstacle to replace traditional petro-based plastics. To address the challenges, strategies towards upstream metabolic engineering and downstream fermentation ...

Differential utilization of ketone bodies by neurons and glioma cell lines: a rationale for ketogenic diet as experimental glioma therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Even in the presence of oxygen, malignant cells often highly depend on glycolysis for energy generation, a phenomenon known as the Warburg effect.

Degradability of cross-linked polyurethanes/chitosan composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Polyurethanes with synthetic poly([R,S]-3-hydroxybutyrate) in the soft segment and with polycaprolactone triol as cross-linker were blended with chitosan and degraded in hydrolytic and oxidative solutions.

Ketone Body, 3-hydroxybutyrate: Minor Metabolite - Major Medical Manifestations.

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020
Ketone bodies - 3-hydroxybutyrate (3-OHB), acetoacetate and acetone - are ancient, evolutionarily preserved, small fuel substrates, which uniquely can substitute and alternate with glucose under conditions of fuel and food deficiency. Once canonized as a

Artificial polyhydroxyalkanoate poly[2-hydroxybutyrate-block-3-hydroxybutyrate] elastomer-like material

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The first polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) block copolymer poly(2-hydroxybutyrate-b-3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(2HB-b-3HB)] was previously synthesized using engineered Escherichia coli expressing a chimeric PHA synthase PhaCAR with monomer sequence-regulating ...
