Biodegradation of highly crystallized poly(ethylene terephthalate) through cell surface codisplay of bacterial PETase and hydrophobin
High-crystallinity poly(ethylene terephthalate) is a major recycling challenge. Here, the authors show an engineered whole-cell biocatalyst showing adhesive hydrophobin and PETase on the surface of cells, for biodegradation of PET.
