technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to a novel phthalate hydrolase obtained by screening from a soil metagenomic library, its coding gene and its application. Background technique
[0002] Phthalates (PAEs), a class of toxic organic compounds, are ubiquitous in the environment due to their widespread use as additives or plasticizers in the manufacture of plastics. Six of them (dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), dioctyl phthalate (DNOP), phthalate Diethylhexyl dicarboxylate (DEHP) and butylbenzyl phthalate (BBP) have been listed as priority pollutants by the US Environmental Protection Agency and some of their international counterparts. Among them, DEHP occupies a high proportion (about 31%) in the environment. The massive use of PAEs has resulted in serious environmental problems and a variety of diseases, including respiratory diseases, childhood obesity, and neurop...
