Polyhydroxyalkanoate as a slow-release carbon source for in situ bioremediation of contaminated aquifers: from laboratory investigation to pilot-scale testing in the field [PDF]
A pilot-scale study aiming to evaluate the potential use of poly-3-hydroxy-butyrate (PHB) as an electron donor source for in situ bioremediation of chlorinated hydrocarbons in groundwater was conducted.

The oleic acid and azide inhibited the cytochrome c oxidase activity in Pseudomonas aeruginosa MCC 5300, shifting the electron flux towards bd‐oxidase. This resulted in more NADH consumption to maintain the proton gradient for energy generation. The rapid depletion of NADH triggered high mcl‐PHA accumulation.

Functionalisation of polyhydroxybutyrate for diagnostic uses
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) is a biodegradable and biocompatible biopolyester, naturally produced and self-assembled as spherical inclusions inside bacteria. These PHB particles contain a hydrophobic PHB core covalently coated with PHB synthase (PhaC), which serves as an anchoring linker for foreign proteins of interest.

Effect of surface roughness, biofilm coverage and biofilm structure on the electrochemical efficiency of microbial cathodes [PDF]
Biofilms of Geobacter sulfurreducens were formed under chronoamperometry at −0.5 V and −0.6 V vs. Ag/AgCl on stainless steel cathodes and tested for fumarate reduction.

A structural perspective on α‐glucan catabolism in oxygenic phototrophs
SUMMARY Starch and glycogen are the main α‐glucan storage polymers in oxygenic photoautotrophs, ensuring metabolic continuity during day/night cycles and environmental stress. Their mobilization requires a suite of catabolic enzymes whose activities are tightly regulated to balance carbon storage with energy demands.

Obligate methanotrophs grow exclusively on C1 compounds; however, their widespread ecological distribution and ability to produce polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) under nutrient stress suggest a greater-than-expected degree of metabolic flexibility.
