Poly-P-hydroxyalkanoates

Polyesters, such as microbially produced poly[(P)-3-hydroxybutyric acid] [poly(3HB)], other poly[(P)-hydroxyalkanoic acids] [poly(HA)] and related biosynthetic or chemosynthetic polyesters are a class of polymers that have potential applications as thermoplastic elastomers. In contrast to poly(ethylene) and similar polymers with saturated, non-functionalized carbon backbones, poly(HA) can be biodegraded to water, methane, and/or carbon dioxide. This review provides an overview of the microbiology, biochemistry and molecular biology of poly(HA) biodegradation. In particular, the properties of extracellular and intracellular poly(HA) hydrolyzing enzymes [poly(HA) depolymerases] are described. [Pg.289]

Another interesting example of lactones are the p-hydroxyalkanoates, whose ROP affords poly(p-hydroxyalkanoate)s (PHAs), a class of aliphatic polyesters naturally produced by bacteria (Fig. 3) [12, 13]. Poly(3-(R)-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is a typical example. PHB is a stiff thermoplastic material with relatively poor impact strength, but the incorporation of other monomers can improve the mechanical properties. [Pg.176]

Another example where metabolic pathway engineering has made a dramatic impact is in the biodegradable polymer field. One of the most widely studied polymers in this family is poly-P-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) (64). A related member of the poly-P-hydroxyalkanoate (PHA) family commercialized by Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI), which later became Zeneca Bio Products,... [Pg.386]

A petroleum-degrading strain HD-1 was able to grow autotrophically by using CQ2 as sole carbon source. Inside the cell there accumulated alkane/alkene besides fatty acids or poly-p-hydroxyalkanoic acid. Fatty acids and fatty aldehydes were shown to be reduced to alkane/alkene by anaerobic incubation with the HD-1 cell lysate. [Pg.470]

Fig. 19. Top C-NMR spectra of the amorphous component of solid poly(p-hydroxyalkanoates) as a function of temperature. Spectra were obtained without MAS. Only the aliphatic region is shown, and the backbone and side-chain carbons are labeled bb and sd, respectively. The differential dynamics of the backbone and side chains is evident in the differential line widths. Bottom Schematic behavior of the line width, under conditions of decoupling, when the... Fig. 19.

Phospholipid fatty add assays can also indicate metabolic changes in a microbial community. During nutrient deprivation and other environmental stresses, fatty add ratios can shift. Guckert et al. [36] found increases in the transxis ratio of monoenoic 16-carbon tty adds in Vibrio cholerae during nutrient starvation. The protocol used to extract the lipids fix>m environmental samples simultaneously extracts other biochemical indicators of nutritional status in microbial communities, for example, poly-P-hydroxyalkanoates [31]. [Pg.215]
