Overview Environmental protection has always been one of the hot topics of the iGEM project, and the plastic topic is even more popular. A lot of work experience could be shared with the future iGEM team. The contribution work we have done this year mainly includes adding new data to existing parts BBa_K3039004, sharing the modeling method of the Michaelis-Menten equation, and lists of references and materials related to PETase and MHETase.
Add new characterization data to existing part (BBa_K3039004) This year we developed an enhanced “plastic eating” biofilm system, including strengthen biofilm, PETase and MHETase. The basic part of MHETase expression is BBa_K3039004 which constructed by 2019 Exeter. It was said that the modified MHETase expression part was unable to express enough to characterize the enzyme. Thus, the characterization data of MHETase protein expression was added to this part registry page. We found that it needs longer time to express MHETase protein in E. Coli. Please click the part number BBa_K3039004 for more details.
Introduction and Experience about Michaelis-Menten equation The classical Michaelis-Menten equation is a basic equation of enzyme kinetics. Analyzing the derivation of this equation yields the fact that its good performance of approximating real reaction processes is due to the Michaelis-Menten curve. Such a curve is derived from Quasi-Steady- State Assumption (QSSA), which has been proved always true and called Quasi-Steady-State Law introduced by Banghe Li et al [1]. It was reported that a polynomial equation was found that gives a more accurate approximation of the reaction process in two aspects: during the quasi-steady-state of the reaction, Michaelis–Menten curve approximates the reaction well, while this equation gives a better approximation; near the end of the reaction, this equation approaches the end of the reaction with a tangent line the same to that of the reaction process trajectory simulated by mass action, while Michaelis-Menten curve does not. In addition, our equation differs from the Michaelis-Menten curve less than the order of 1/S3 as S approaches +∞, where S is the substrate concentration. If the iGEM team in the future needs to use a more reasonable model to analyze the characteristics of the enzyme kinetic model, you can refer to it.

Lists of References and Materials Related to PETase and MHETase List of previous iGEM projects using PETase and MHETase (with IvyMaker-China) In order to save the time of searching and sorting information for the new iGEMers, we reviewed the related projects over the years and summarized the successful projects results as follows. We hope this list can be supplemented continuously in the future by other iGEMers if they want. In summary, the previous iGEM teams are mainly committed to solving the problems related to PET degradation: 1) improving the degradation efficiency and 2) improving the thermal stability of PETase (2019 Exeter). 3) Improving the secretion efficiency of PETase if necessary (2018 Yale).
