3.1.1.101 | degradation | a dual enzyme system composed of a polyester hydrolase and a carboxylesterase enhances the biocatalytic degradation of polyethylene terephthalate films. Since the enzymatic PET hydrolysis is inhibited by the degradation intermediate 4-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)carbonyl]benzoate, a dual enzyme system consisting of a polyester hydrolase and the immobilized carboxylesterase TfCa from Thermobifida fusca KW3 is employed for the hydrolysis of PET films at 60°C. HPLC analysis of the reaction products obtained after 24 h of hydrolysis shows an increased amount of soluble products with a lower proportion of 4-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)carbonyl]benzoate in the presence of the immobilized carboxylesterase TfCa. The results indicate a continuous hydrolysis of the inhibitory 4-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)carbonyl]benzoate by the immobilized carboxylesterase TfCa and demonstrate its advantage as a second biocatalyst in combination with a polyester hydrolase for an efficient degradation oft PET films | Thermobifida fusca |
