초록/요약
Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT), a bioplastic made with aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. PBAT is widely used with blending material to enhance the properties of other bioplastics. There are a few studies reporting microorganisms that can degrade PBAT. In this study, we found five kinds of PBAT-degrading microorganisms from various environmental samples and PBAT enriched soil and seawater. We characterized Blastobotrys sp. MB 2020, a new yeast strain capable of degrading PBAT. This strain demonstrated degradative activity on PBAT- containing medium and effectively metabolized 1,4-butanediol, a monomer of PBAT. We do GC/MS analysis to identify PBAT degradation products. This analytical approach detected 1,4-butanediol, adipic acid, terephthalic acid, and dimeric intermediates. Moreover, genomic and proteomic investigations identified putative PBAT-degradable enzymes, including lipases, cutinases, and the cutinase production pathway. These findings offer novel insights into the enzymatic and metabolic changes that enable PBAT biodegradation.
