Impact of additives of commercial rubber compounds on the microbial and enzymatic degradation of poly(cis-1,4-isoprene)
(2019)
Much fundamental research has already been performed to understand the mechanism of microbial rubber degradation. Due to the increasing amount of rubber waste, biotechnical methods to degrade that particular waste are ...
Synthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates through the biodegradation of poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) rubber
(2019)
The search of alternative substrates for the synthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) has become an important factor in order to decrease the production costs. Therefore, the use of industrial by-products or waste materials ...
Coenzyme Q production by metabolic engineered Escherichia coli strains in defined medium
(2019)
Coenzyme Q (CoQ) plays an important role as an electron transporter in the respiratory chain. It is formed from a benzoquinone ring and an isoprenoid chain of a specific length depending on the organism. We constructed an ...
Enhancing the synthesis of latex clearing protein by different cultivation strategies
(2019)
In this study, we improved the synthesis of the latex clearing protein from Gordonia polyisoprenivorans VH2 (Lcp1VH2), a key enzyme for the initial cleavage of the rubber backbone. Cultivations using a recombinant strain ...
Characterization of the latex clearing protein of the poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) and poly(trans-1,4-isoprene) degrading bacterium Nocardia nova SH22a
(2019)
Nocardia nova SH22a is an actinobacterium capable of degrading the polyisoprenes poly(cis-1,4-isoprene) and poly(trans-1,4-isoprene). Sequencing and annotating the genome of this strain led to the identification of a single ...
