ENZYME entry: EC 3.1.1.75

Accepted Name
poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) depolymerase
Alternative Name(s)
PHB depolymerase
poly(3HB) depolymerase
poly(HA) depolymerase
poly(HASCL) depolymerase
poly[(R)-hydroxyalkanoic acid] depolymerase
Reaction catalysed
  • [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n) + H2O = (R)-3-hydroxybutanoate + [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n-1) + H(+)
  • [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n) + H2O = (3R)-hydroxybutanoate dimer + [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n-2) + H(+)
  • [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n) + H2O = (3R)-hydroxybutanoate trimer + [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n-3) + H(+)
  • [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n) + H2O = (3R)-hydroxybutanoate tetramer + [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n-4) + H(+)
  • [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n) + H2O = (3R)-hydroxybutanoate pentamer + [(3R)-hydroxybutanoate](n-5) + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • Reaction also occurs with esters of other short-chain-length (C1-C5) hydroxyalkanoic acids (HA).
  • There are two types of polymers: native (intracellular) granules are amorphous and have an intact surface layer; denatured (extracellular) granules either have no surface layer or a damaged surface layer and are partially crystalline.
