The Bacteroidetes Aequorivita sp. and Kaistella jeonii Produce Promiscuous Esterases With PET-Hydrolyzing Activity

Hongli Zhang et al.

Summary: This article reports the first functional PET-active enzymes from the Bacteroidetes phylum and describes the depolymerization ability of two promiscuous and cold-active esterases on polycaprolactone, amorphous PET foil, and polyester polyurethane. The crystal structure and microscopic analysis reveal the potential of these enzymes in PET degradation, suggesting their importance in aquatic habitats across different global climate zones.

Acting rapidly to deploy readily available methane mitigation measures by sector can immediately slow global warming

Ilissa B. Ocko et al.

Summary: This paper analyzes the climate benefits of fast action to reduce methane emissions compared to slower and delayed mitigation timelines. It finds that rapid implementation of available mitigation measures can significantly reduce near-term temperature rise and slow the global-mean rate of warming. Urgently scaling up efforts to implement methane mitigation measures is crucial to limiting climate damages in the near-term.

High CO2 levels drive the TCA cycle backwards towards autotrophy

Lydia Steffens et al.

Summary: In Deltoproteobacterium Hippea maritima, the TCA cycle can be reversed by high CO2 partial pressures for autotrophic carbon fixation. This reversed oxidative TCA cycle could have functioned in autotrophic CO2 fixation in a primordial atmosphere rich in CO2.

Biocatalysis

Elizabeth L. Bell et al.

Summary: Biocatalysis has become crucial in modern organic synthesis, thanks to the rapid expansion of chemical reactions accessible through advanced tools for enzyme discovery and high-throughput laboratory evolution techniques. Tailor-made enzymes with high efficiencies and selectivities can now be produced quickly and on a large scale, with dedicated databases and search tools making them accessible to a broader scientific community. Recent advances in de novo design, directed evolution, and multistep enzyme cascades illustrate the potential for reproducible biocatalytic processes in industry.

Microbial synthesis of vanillin from waste poly(ethylene terephthalate)

Joanna C. Sadler et al.

Summary: This study reports a novel approach to directly upcycle post-consumer PET waste into valuable vanillin using engineered Escherichia coli. After process optimization, a conversion rate of 79% from terephthalic acid to vanillin was achieved, marking a significant improvement in yield. This work demonstrates the first biological upcycling of post-consumer plastic waste into vanillin, showcasing the potential for sustainable solutions in the plastic recycling industry.
