More model informationVisualized in this model is the groundbreaking PETase enzyme sourced from the PET-consuming microbe Ideonella sakaiensis. Its rapidly gathering appraisal due to the potential it has for bioconversion of plastics into soluble building blocks, of bis-2(hydroxyethyl) TPA (BHET) and mono-(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalic acid (MHET). Specficaly we have the S131A mutant and the substrate HEMT, a substrate analogue to PET (normally the substrate). 5 Interactions facilitating the interaction between PETase and HEMT are elucidated in the model above (Han et al., 2017).
