Abstract Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is one of the most marketed aromatic polyesters in world with an annual demand 2022 approximately 29 million metric tons, expected to increase by 40% 2030. The escalating volume PET waste and current inadequacy recycling methods have led accumulation terrestrial ecosystem, thereby posing significant global health risks. pressing energy environmental issues associated underscore urgent need for “upcycling” technologies. These technologies aim transform reclaimed into higher-value products, addressing both concerns sustainability. Enzyme-mediated biocatalytic depolymerization has emerged as a potentially bio-sustainable method treating plastics. Numerous plastic-degrading enzymes been identified from microbial origins, advancements protein engineering employed modify enhance these enzymes. Microbial metabolic allows development modified chassis capable degrading substrates converting their derived monomers industrial relevant products. In this review, we describe several approaches aiming at enhancing performances PET-degrading present strategies adopted bio-upcycle high-value molecules.

Enzymes have selectivity, require mild catalytic conditions, and are important cornerstones in many industrial processes. Protein self-cyclization has opened up the possibility of preserving fragile enzymes during long-term high-temperature catalysis. However, mechanism for improvement thermal tolerance not been elucidated, severely limiting their applications. Herein, we provide a strategy rational design fusion proteins based on structural analysis to obtain cyclized with improved properties. First, constructed that preferentially translated SpyCatcher (CBT) or SpyTag (TBC), both which could form stable single significantly tolerance. Especially, half-life TBC obtained by modifying N-terminal at 40 °C was 10.83 times wild enzymes. Structural revealed terminus protein, SpyCatcher, folded into conformation adversely affected stability. In addition, structure pocket orientation residues CBT were different from those wild-type enzymes, led decrease activity. These conclusions confirmed when another enzyme, sucrose phosphorylase, cyclized. Finally, glucosidase also superior strain preparation ginsenoside F1 high titers as whole-cell catalyst extended use. conclusion, demonstrated first time conjugated long oligopeptide activity stability It necessary translate units less steric hindrance reduce impact protein structure. The provides simple effective modification poor tolerance, providing considerable prospects biosynthesis vivo vitro.

Abstract Lignocellulosic biomass, such as plant residues and agricultural waste, holds immense potential a renewable resource for the production of biofuels, chemicals, animal feed. However, efficient degradation lignocellulose into fermentable sugars remains significant challenge. Recent research has highlighted critical role microbial diversity in lignocellulosic biomass degradation, offering new insights from biotechnological perspective. The comprehension utilization are crucial developing strategies degradation. By uncovering intricate relationships between communities their enzymatic machinery, researchers can optimize processes, enhance biofuel production, contribute to more sustainable bio‐based economy. Microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, archaea, possess diverse capabilities, allowing them secrete plethora lignocellulolytic enzymes. Microbial organisms inhabiting extreme environments, rumen, hot cold springs, deep sea trenches, acidic alkaline pH exhibit generating enzymes, hemicellulolytic which superior biochemical properties essential industrial bioconversion applications. This review explores ability enzymes sources efficiently break down applications biotechnology.
