== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PETH_PISS1 PETH_PISS1] 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. Likely acts synergistically with MHETase to depolymerize PET (PubMed:26965627). Catalyzes the hydrolysis of PET to produce mono(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (MHET) as the major product (PubMed:26965627, PubMed:29235460, PubMed:29374183, PubMed:29603535, PubMed:29666242, PubMed:32269349). Also depolymerizes another semiaromatic polyester, poly(ethylene-2,5-furandicarboxylate) (PEF), which is an emerging, bioderived PET replacement with improved gas barrier properties (PubMed:29666242). In contrast, PETase does not degrade aliphatic polyesters such as polylactic acid (PLA) and polybutylene succinate (PBS) (PubMed:29666242). Is also able to hydrolyze bis(hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (BHET) to yield MHET with no further decomposition, but terephthalate (TPA) can also be observed (PubMed:26965627, PubMed:29374183, PubMed:29603535). Shows esterase activity towards p-nitrophenol-linked aliphatic esters (pNP-aliphatic esters) in vitro (PubMed:26965627, PubMed:30502092).<ref>PMID:26965627</ref> <ref>PMID:29235460</ref> <ref>PMID:29374183</ref> <ref>PMID:29603535</ref> <ref>PMID:29666242</ref> <ref>PMID:30502092</ref> <ref>PMID:32269349</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) hydrolase from Ideonella sakaiensis (IsPETase) can be used to degrade PET. In order to use IsPETase in industry, we studied the enzymatic activity of IsPETase in different conditions containing environmental and physicochemical factors commonly found in nature. We observed that salts and glycerol enhanced the enzymatic activity, while detergents and organic solvents reduced the enzymatic activity. IsPETase hydrolyzed p-nitrophenyl (p-NP) esters instead of naphthyl esters. To make IsPETase an enzyme capable of hydrolyzing naphthyl esters, site-directed mutagenesis was carried out based on the structural information provided by the crystal structure. We found that the IsPETase(S93M), IsPETase(W159F), and IsPETase(N241F) mutants can hydrolyze naphthyl esters. IsPETase engineering can direct researchers to use this alpha/beta-hydrolase protein scaffold to design enzymes that can hydrolyze a variety of polyesters.
