Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] is the most representative polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA), which is a storage polyester for prokaryotic cells. P(3HB)-producing recombinant Escherichia coli secretes diethylene glycol (DEG)-terminated 3HB oligomers (3HBO-DEG)

Polyhydroyxalkanoate Synthase Fusions as a Strategy for Oriented Enzyme Immobilisation
Molecules, 2014 Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is a carbon storage polymer produced by certain bacteria in unbalanced nutrient conditions. The PHA forms spherical inclusions surrounded by granule associate proteins including the PHA synthase (PhaC).

Inhibitors of Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) Synthases: Synthesis, Molecular Docking, and Implications [PDF]
ChemBioChem, 2014 AbstractPolyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthases (PhaCs) catalyze the formation of biodegradable PHAs that are considered to be ideal alternatives to non‐biodegradable synthetic plastics. However, study of PhaCs has been challenging because the rate of PHA chain elongation is much faster than that of initiation.

A study into the cobalamin-dependent methionine synthase reactivation mechanism in corynebacterium glutamicum [PDF]
, 2009 PhDMethionine is one of the seven essential amino-acids for humans and is also used in feed supplements, predominantly for poultry and felines. Thus there is commercial interest in producing this nutrient. The final step in the biological synthesis of

Polyhydroxyalkanoate Producing Potential of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Fountain Journal of Natural and Applied Sciences (FUJNAS), 2018 Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are inclusion bodies accumulated by some microorganisms as reserve material under unbalanced growth condition such as limited oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorous or sulphur and excess carbon source.

Characterization Of A Highly Active Polyhydroxyalkanoate Synthase [PDF]
, 2012 Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase from a locally isolated Chromobacterium sp. USM2 (PhaCCs) exhibited superior polymerizing ability and broad in vivo substrate specificity with preferences for short chain length (SCL) [3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) and 3 ...
