Abstract

Widespread utilization of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has caused a variety of environmental and health problems; thus, the enzymatic degradation of PET can be a promising solution. Although PETase from Ideonalla sakaiensis ( Is PETase) has been reported to have the highest PET degradation activity under mild conditions of all PET-degrading enzymes reported to date, its low thermal stability limits its ability for efficient and practical enzymatic degradation of PET. Using the structural information on Is PETase, we developed a rational protein engineering strategy using several Is PETase variants that were screened for high thermal stability to improve PET degradation activity. In particular, the Is PETase S121E/D186H/R280A variant, which was designed to have a stabilized β6-β7 connecting loop and extended subsite IIc, had a T m value that was increased by 8.81 °C and PET degradation activity was enhanced by 14-fold at 40 °C in comparison with Is PETase WT . The designed structural modifications were further verified through structure determination of the variants, and high thermal stability was further confirmed by a heat-inactivation experiment. The proposed strategy and developed variants represent an important advancement for achieving the complete biodegradation of PET under mild conditions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
