Bioinformatic and functional analysis of a PHB polymerase (PhbC) from Azospirillum baldaniorum

Background: Azospirillum baldaniorum Sp245 produces poly-β-hydroxybutyrate, a biodegradable polymer with characteristics similar to synthetic thermoplastics, including polypropylene. In the synthesis pathway, the poly-β-hydroxybutyrate synthase enzyme uses thioesters of 3-hydroxy butyryl-CoA as a su...
