Bacterial Polyesters: Microbial Polyhydroxyalkanoates and Nonnatural Polyesters (Adv. Mater. 35/2020)

Abstract: Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a family of polyesters synthesized and intracellularly accumulated as distinct granules in many microorganisms. PHAs are promising materials to substitute the petroleum‐based plastics currently in use. In article 1907138, Sang Yup Lee and co‐workers provide a comprehensive overview of PHAs, including their biosynthesis, overall production process, and applications.

“…[ 91 ] To quantitatively evaluate the adhesion energy of P‐G hydrogel, lap shear tests and 180° peeling tests are performed between two pieces of P‐G hydrogels, with one hydrogel layer mimicking the biological tissue (Figure S6, Supporting Information). As it is common to use hydrogels as tissue mimics, [ 38,45,92 ] we first measure the peeling strength between two hydrogels to simulate the intranasal environment. We apply the P‐G hydrogel to another layer of P‐G hydrogel simulating the moist nasal mucosa and place it in a humid environment (90% RH, 37 °C) simulating the humidity in the nasal cavity.…”

“…Specifically, most Class-I PHA synthases, such as PhaCs from R. eutropha ( Ushimaru et al, 2014 ), Alcaligenes latus ( Park et al, 2012a ), Aeromonas Caviae and Chromobacterium sp . ( Choi et al, 2020 ), not only show effective activity on SCL PHA accumulation including 3HB, 3HP, 4HB and 3HV units, but also display polymerization capability of MCL PHA like 3HHx ( Antonio et al, 2000 ).…”

“…Of which, the monomers of SCL-, MCL- and LCL-PHA generally contain 2–5, 6–14 and over 15 carbon atoms, respectively. Because of the competitive material properties, PHA has attracted growing attentions of commercial interests in different application areas, such as medical implant ( Chen and Wu, 2005 ), cosmetic beads ( Choi et al, 2020 ), packaging ( Chen and Patel, 2012 ), agricultural film ( Chen, 2009 ), textile ( Chen, 2009 ), feeding additives ( Chen, 2009 ) and so on. In the past decades, intensive efforts have been made to generate various PHA productions consisting of diverse polymerized units with different carbon-chain-length and structures by genetically modified bacterial ( Chen and Jiang, 2017 ), such as Halomonas spp.…”

“…[ 2 ] It is more promising by leveraging environmentally friendly and widely adaptable biomaterial tools, involving microorganisms and biomolecules, with quantitative yields, fast kinetics, high selectivity, and fidelity for REE separation. [ 3–17 ] However, there remain significant challenges for biomaterials in industry application due to their inefficiency in extracting high‐performance REE materials from ores. Therefore, developing a new generation of biosynthetic materials for agile biofoundry is necessary to obtain high‐value utilization of REEs.…”
