Abstract

At present, biodegradable and biocompatible polymers are being widely sought by materials industries, and poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate) (PHA) appears to be one of the most promising material sources of such polymers. Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is a typical PHA and has been investigated in detail. Although there have been several reports on in vitro PHB synthesis by soluble enzymes, 1–8 PHB synthesis using immobilized en
