Poly(3-hydroxyoctanoate) depolymerase
Definition:
EC Tree > 3 Hydrolases > 3.1 Acting on ester bonds > 3.1.1 Carboxylic-ester hydrolases > 3.1.1.76 poly(3-hydroxyoctanoate) depolymerase
Poly(3-hydroxyoctanoate) depolymerase is the medium-chain-PHA-degrading enzyme. It hydrolyzes poly{oxycarbonyl[(R)-2-pentylethylene]} to oligomers, with the dimer as main prolonged-incubation product; it also hydrolyzes other C6-C12 medium-chain PHA polyesters and copolymers, and p-nitrophenyl fatty-acid esters, but not short-chain PHB/PHV. Expected in Bacteria and Eukaryota.
