Molecular characterization of a regulatory protein (PhaR) involved in PHA biosynthesis
Phasins (PhaP) are polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) granule-associated proteins that positively affect the PHA synthesis. In the heterologous expression experiment in Escherichia coli, introduction of only phaP caused overproduction of PhaP, and apparent repression of PhaP production was observed in the presence of phaR, which is located in the downstream region of phaP. It indicates that PhaR seems ...

This editorial paper provides a synopsis of the contributions to the Bioengineering special issue "Advances in Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) Production". It illustrates the embedding of the issue's individual research articles in the current global research and development landscape related to polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). The article shows how these articles are interrelated to each other, reflect...
متن کاملPolyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) Granules Have no Phospholipids
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) granules, also designated as carbonosomes, are supra-molecular complexes in prokaryotes consisting of a PHB polymer core and a surface layer of structural and functional proteins. The presence of suspected phospholipids in the surface layer is based on in vitro data of isolated PHB granules and is often shown in cartoons of the PHB granule structure in reviews on PHB m...
متن کاملA transferable heterogeneous two-hybrid system in Escherichia coli based on polyhydroxyalkanoates synthesis regulatory protein PhaR
BACKGROUND Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthesis regulatory protein PhaR contains a DNA binding domain (DBD) and a PHA granule binding domain (GBD), it anchors to the promoter region of PHA granule-associated protein (PhaP) to repress phaP expression. However, PhaR will bind to PHB granules and be released from phaP promoter region when PHA granules are formed in vivo, initiating expression of p...
متن کاملPolyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA): Review of synthesis, characteristics, processing and potential applications in packaging
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are gaining increasing attention in the biodegradable polymer market due to their promising properties such as high biodegradability in different environments, not just in composting plants, and processing versatility. Indeed among biopolymers, these biogenic polyesters represent a potential sustainable replacement for fossil fuel-based thermoplastics. Most commerci...
