Figure 3From: Functional characterization and structural modeling of synthetic polyester-degrading hydrolases from Thermomonospora curvataDecomposition of polyester nanoparticles by T. curvata hydrolases. PCL hydrolysis by (A) Tcur1278 and (B) Tcur0390 at 49°C; PET hydrolysis by Tcur1278 at (C) 50°C, (D) 55°C and (E) 60°C, and by Tcur0390 at (F) 50°C. The initial rates of the square roots of turbidity decrease are plotted as a function of enzyme concentration (squares and diamonds). Error bars represent the standard deviation of duplicate determinations. Fitted data (solid lines) according to Eq. (1) are also shown.Back to article page
