- W4387398923 abstract "Polymeric materials have desirable chemical and physical properties leading to wide applications in consumer industries. However, such properties which include high hydrophobicity, crystallinity, strong chemical bonds and high molecular weight, inhibit natural biodegradation of plastics by wild-type microbes. This has led to the accumulation of microplastics and nanoplastics in the environment that is projected to be 12 000 million metric tons by the year 2050. Such accumulations bear serious health side effects on both terrestrial and marine ecosystems. Current methods used to control microplastics in the environment have proved inadequate due to high plastic productions and extensive uses. Biological methods of controlling plastic pollution which involve enzymes from various microbes, has emerged as an efficient, eco-friendly and sustainable alternative to plastic treatment and recycling. However, naturally occurring plastic biodegrading enzymes, possess limited biodegradation capacity due to low thermostability and biocatalytic activities thus limiting large scale applications. This review focuses on leveraged protein-enzyme genetic engineering techniques intended to improve catalytic performance of putative plastic biodegrading enzymes and production of environmentally friendly bioplastics from natural fibers as a substitute of synthetic petroleum based plastics. Genetically modified plastic degrading enzymes possess boosted substrate interaction, increased hydrophobicity, better catalytic efficiency, increased thermostability and optimized plastic biodegradability." @default.
