Marine PET Hydrolase (PET2): Assessment of Terephthalate- and Indole-Based Polyester Depolymerization

Paula Wagner-Egea,

Cecilia Tullberg
et al.

Abstract: Enzymatic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) recycling processes are gaining interest for their low environmental impact, use of mild conditions, and specificity. Furthermore, PET hydrolase enzymes are continuously being discovered and engineered. In this work, we studied a PET hydrolase (PET2), initially characterized as an alkaline thermostable lipase. PET2 was produced in a fusion form with a 6-histidine tag in the N-terminal. The PET2 activity on aromatic terephthalate and new indole-based polyesters was eva… Show more

“…Then, a specialized transporter in the periplasm imports the TPA into the cytoplasm (Yoshida et al, 2016). MHET is also the main product when marine PET2 (Wagner-Egea et al, 2023) and leaf-branch compost cutinase (LCC) from bacterial origin are used for TPA depolymerization (Tournier et al, 2020). The extracellular enzymatic extract from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia also yields MEHT as the major PET powder degradation product (Din et al, 2023).…”

“…PET Ramapet N180 was purchased from Indorama and prepared as a semicrystalline powder by solubilisation and precipitation, as described before (Wagner-Egea et al, 2021). The crystallinity was 11.3%, determined previously by Differential Scanning Calorimetry(Wagner-Egea et al, 2023).…”
