Asymmetric Open-Closed Dimer Mechanism of Polyhydroxyalkanoate Synthase PhaC
Summary: Biodegradable polyester polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is a promising bioplastic material for industrial use as a replacement for petroleum-based plastics. PHA synthase PhaC forms an active dimer to polymerize acyl moieties from the substrate acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) into PHA polymers. Here we pre...
