• Bacterial polymers: biosynthesis, modifications and applications (2010, background): “PhaC belongs to the α/β-hydrolase fold family of enzymes and catalyses the stereoselective conversion of the activated precursor ( R )-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA to polyoxoesters, with the concomitant release of Co”
• Biodegradability of poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate) and poly(ε-caprolactone) via biological carbon cycles in marine environments (2020, background): “However, other PHA monomeric components (3HHx, 3HO, 4HB, 6HHx) are also available as substrates [60, 61].”
• A Review on Established and Emerging Fermentation Schemes for Microbial Production of Polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) Biopolyesters (2018, background): “Mixed scl-mcl heteropolymers can be biosynthetized either by strains with specialized Class III synthases, such as Thiocapsia pfeningii or Aeromonas caviae, or by means of genetic engineering, hence, by designing cells harboring both Class I and Class II synthase [44,45].”
