The increasing discovery of additional enzymes exhibiting catalytic promiscuity has underscored the significance of this trait in nature. The catalytic promiscuity of enzymes offers new avenues for functional redesign. Through protein engineering, existing enzymes can be modified to expand their natural catalytic boundaries. Furthermore, de novo designed artificial enzymes can achieve novel enzymatic reactions, broadening the scope of enzyme-catalyzed applications. Given that catalytic promiscuity plays a fundamental role in enzyme evolution, comprehensive research on its origins and influencing factors is essential. In this review, we comprehensively examine the factors influencing catalytic promiscuity, including variations in substrate binding modes in pre-reaction states, the instability of key high-energy intermediates, and the roles of critical residues in catalytic mechanisms. Moreover, altering the enzyme's catalytic environment can also induce novel types of catalytic reactions, such as light-induced promiscuous reactions catalyzed by cofactor-dependent oxidoreductase enzymes.

However, inadequate disposal and recycling methods have led to severe environmental consequences. While traditional end-of-life plastics management had predominantly relied on landfilling, a paradigm shift towards recycling and valorization emerged in the 1970s, leading to the development of various, mostly mechanochemical, recycling strategies, together with the more recent approach of biological depolymerization and upcycling. Plastic upcycling, which converts plastic waste into higher-value products, is gaining attention as a sustainable strategy to reduce environmental impact and reliance on virgin materials. Microbial plastic upcycling relies on efficient depolymerization methods to generate monomeric substrates, which are subsequently metabolized by native or engineered microbial systems yielding valuable bioproducts. This review focuses on the second phase of microbial polyester upcycling, examining the intracellular metabolic pathways that enable the assimilation and bioconversion of polyester-derived monomers into industrially relevant compounds. Both biodegradable and non-biodegradable polyesters with commercial significance are considered, with emphasis on pure monomeric feedstocks to elucidate intracellular carbon assimilation pathways.
