In 2016, iGEM Team TJUSLS-China made significant progress in developing PET-degrading enzymes, specifically PETase from Ideonella sakaiensis 201-F6.

Inspired by their work, we explored whether adding anchor proteins enhances PETase functionality and identified potentially better anchors, such as Pir1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
