In vivo immobilization of an organophosphorus hydrolyzing enzyme on bacterial polyhydroxyalkanoate nano-granules

Microbial Cell Factories, 2019
Background Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) are nano-granules naturally produced by bacteria. Two types of proteins, PHA synthase (PhaC) and phasins (PhaPs), are attached to the PHA surface by covalent and hydrophobic interactions.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates as Sustainable Agricultural Plastics: Processing Strategies, Performance, and Environmental Perspectives

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 5, May 2026.
This review highlights polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) as biodegradable materials for agricultural plastics. It outlines how composition, processing, and formulation strategies shape material properties and end‐of‐life behavior. Applications in films and foams are discussed alongside current limitations in cost and scalability, emphasizing emerging ...

Production of functionalized polyhydroxyalkanoates by genetically modified Methylobacterium extorquens strains

Microbial Cell Factories, 2010
Background Methylotrophic (methanol-utilizing) bacteria offer great potential as cell factories in the production of numerous products from biomass-derived methanol. Bio-methanol is essentially a non-food substrate, an advantage over sugar-utilizing cell

Inactivation of type I polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase in Aeromonas hydrophila resulted in discovery of another potential PHA synthase

Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology, 2006
Aeromonas hydrophila CGMCC 0911 possessing type I polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase (PhaC) produced only PHBHHx from lauric acid but not from glucose. Medium-chain-length (mcl) PHA was produced from lauric acid or glucose only when PhaC of A. hydrophila was inactivated, indicating the existence of another PHA synthase in the wild type.

Production of Short-Chain-Length/Medium-Chain-Length Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) Copolymer in the Plastid of Arabidopsis thaliana Using an Engineered 3-Ketoacyl-acyl Carrier Protein Synthase III

, 2016
Short-chain-length/medium-chain-length (SCL/MCL) polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) was produced in the plastids of Arabidopsis thaliana. Phe87Thr (F87T) mutated 3-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) synthase III (FabH) from Escherichia coli, and Ser325Thr ...

Increased Production and Molecular Weight of Artificial Polyhydroxyalkanoate Poly(2-hydroxybutyrate) Above the Glass Transition Temperature Threshold

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019
Poly(2-hydroxybutyrate) [P(2HB)] is an artificial polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthesized using engineered 2-hydroxyalkanoate-polymerizing PHA synthase. In the present study, the effect of temperature on P(2HB) synthesis was investigated.

Analysis of in vivo substrate specificity of the PHA synthase from Ralstonia eutropha: Formation of novel copolyesters in recombinant Escherichia coli

, 2000
In order to investigate the in vivo substrate specificity of the type I polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase from Ralstonia eutropha, we functionally expressed the PHA synthase gene in various Escherichia coli mutants affected in fatty acid β-oxidation ...
