Driven by widespread interest in biodegrading commercial fluorinated compounds, many of which are known as per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS), it is necessary to identify and engineer new enzymes. For example, some hydrolases react with -CF<sub>2</sub>- moieties, a common functionality in PFAS. Additional enzymatic C-F cleaving mechanisms catalyzed by reductases, lyases, and oxygenases have been identified via screening. Screening and evolving PFAS defluorination in bacteria is inhibited by the obligate release of toxic fluoride from C-F cleavage. Engineering greater fluoride tolerance in bacteria is a problem that must be solved in tandem with enzyme improvement.</p>","PeriodicalId":440,"journal":{"name":"Trends in Biochemical Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142790894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
