Description
Host species: Nicotiana benthamiana
Native organism of product: Ideonella sakaiensis (strain 201-F6)
Molecular weight: 28 kDa
Tag: C-terminal His-tag
Uses: For research use only. Examples include SDS-PAGE, Western Blot, functional assays.
Relevance: PETase has been shown to be involved in the first depolymerization step of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET). PETase hydrolyses Poly(ethylene terephthalate) to mono(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (MHET). PETase, and its corresponding pathway partner, MHETase (which carries out the second depolymerization step) are of biotechnological interest in the recycling of plastic products into benign materials.2-3
