Here, we present four archaeal metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) (three MAGs and one MAG) from a polar upwelling zone in the Southern Ocean. These archaea harbor putative genes encoding enzymes such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) hydrolases (PETases) and polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) depolymerases, which are associated with microbial degradation of PET and PHB plastics.
在此,我们展示了来自南大洋极地上升流区的四个古菌宏基因组组装基因组(MAGs)(三个MAG和一个MAG)。这些古菌含有假定的编码酶的基因,如聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯(PET)水解酶(PETases)和聚羟基丁酸酯(PHB)解聚酶,它们与PET和PHB塑料的微生物降解有关。
