Polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase (PhaC): The key enzyme for biopolyester synthesis
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are considered good candidates in replacing commercial petrochemical plastics in certain applications like single-use packaging since they are biodegradable, biocompatible and share similar properties with conventional ...

Purification and Characterization of Polyhydroxyalkanoate Synthase from Extremely Halophilic Archaeon Haloferax mediterranei: Key Enzyme of Biodegradable Plastic Synthesis [PDF]
The biosynthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) biopolymer is highly dependent on the activity of a key enzyme, PHA synthase (PhaC). The halophilic archaeon Haloferax mediterranei can accumulate large amounts of PHAs from different carbon sources under ...
