Short description

Forms PETase which degrades PET.

Long description

Involved in the degradation and assimilation of the plastic poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), which allows I.sakaiensis to use PET as its major energy and carbon source for growth. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of PET to produce mono(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (MHET) as the major product. Is also able to hydrolyze bis(hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET) to yield MHET with no further decomposition. Shows low activity towards p-nitrophenol-linked aliphatic esters (pNP-aliphatic esters) in vitro
