Microbial Polyethylene Terephthalate Hydrolases: Current and Future Perspectives
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Plastic has rapidly transformed our world, with many aspects of human life now relying on a variety of plastic materials. Biological plastic degradation, which employs microorganisms and their degradative enzymes, has emerged as one way to address the ...

Lipoamidase is a multiple hydrolase [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1990 The substrate specificity of lipoamidase, purified from the pig brain membrane with lipoyl 4-aminobenzoate (LPAB) as a substrate, was extensively studied. This single polypeptide was found to hydrolyse the bonding between amide, ester and peptide compounds. However, stringent structural requirements were found in the substrates, e.g.

The Multifaceted Role of Epoxide Hydrolases in Human Health and Disease
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Epoxide hydrolases (EHs) are key enzymes involved in the detoxification of xenobiotics and biotransformation of endogenous epoxides. They catalyze the hydrolysis of highly reactive epoxides to less reactive diols.

EP-Pred: A Machine Learning Tool for Bioprospecting Promiscuous Ester Hydrolases
Biomolecules, 2022 When bioprospecting for novel industrial enzymes, substrate promiscuity is a desirable property that increases the reusability of the enzyme. Among industrial enzymes, ester hydrolases have great relevance for which the demand has not ceased to increase.

Comparative biochemistry of four polyester (PET) hydrolases
bioRxiv, 2020 The potential of bioprocessing in a circular plastic economy has strongly stimulated research in enzymatic degradation of different synthetic resins. Particular interest has been devoted to the commonly used polyester, poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET),
