P(3HB) synthase catalyzes polymerization of the 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA monomers, Pseudomonas sp. USM 4-55 is a soil isolated bacterium that possesses the ability to produce polyhydroxyalkanoates consisting of both poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) homopolymer and medium-chain length monomers (6 to 14 carbon atoms) when sugars or fatty acids are utilized as the sole carbon source
recombinant Escherichia coli expressing PHA synthase from Bacillus cereus shows a reduction of the molecular weight of PHA produced during the stationary phase of growth. Its carboxy end structure is capped by ethanol, as the result of alcoholytic cleavage of PHA chains by PhaRC induced by endogenous ethanol. This scission reaction is also induced by exogenous ethanol in both in vivo and in vitro assays. In addition, PhaRC has alcoholysis activity for PHA chains synthesized by other synthases
heterologous expression of foreign PHA synthases in the single mutant lacking isoform PhaC2 and in a double mutant lacking both isoforms PhaC1 and PhaC2 results in a significant accumulation of polyhydroxybutanoate in all generated strains. Six of the thirteen generated phaC hybrid vectors lead to an increased polyhydroxybutanoate accumulation in the single mutant in comparison to the wild type strain. All recombinant strains of Rthe double mutant harboring heterologous phaC genes accumulate significantly less polyhydroxybutanoate than the recombinant single mutants and the wild type strain. Recombinant strains with higher content of accumulated polyhydroxybutanoate are linked to higher growth rates and higher maximum ODs, due to the light scattering effect of polyhydroxybutanoate granules. All recombinant strains of the double mutant show significantly decreased growth rates and maximum ODs

acylation of C319 causes a shift of the monomeric form of the synthase to its dimeric form, and this shift is accompanied by a substantial increase in its specific activity and a substantial decrease in the lag phase of polymer formation

addition of Mg2+ shows the strongest activation effect. However, high enzyme activity without Mg2+ ions is observed, when other ions are present, suggesting that Mg2+ ions do not serve as cofactors
in the absence of salts the granule-bound PHB synthase still exhibits about 40% of the maximum activity. Enzyme activity is strongly enhanced by slightly increasing the ionic strength independent of the salt

LITERATURE
a synthetic operon for polyhydroxyalkanoate biosynthesis designed to yield high levels of PHA synthase activity in vivo is constructed by positioning a genetic fragment encoding beta-ketothiolase and acetoacetyl-CoA reductase behind a modified synthase gene containing an Escherichia coli promoter and ribosome binding site. Plasmids containing the synthetic operon and the native Alcaligenes eutrophus PHA operon are transformed into Escherichia DH5 alpha and analyzed for polyhydroxybutyrate production. The molecular weight of polymer isolated from recombinant Escherichia coli containing the modified synthase construct is lower than that of the polymer from Escherichia coli containing the native Alcaligenes eutrophus operon. A further decrease in polyester molecular weight is observed with increased induction of the PHA biosynthetic genes in the synthetic operon. Comparison of the enzyme activity levels of PHA biosynthetic enzymes in a strain encoding the native operon with a strain possessing the synthetic operon indicates that the amount of polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase in a host organism plays a key role in controlling the molecular weight and the polydispersity of polymer
