🧫 Plastic-Eating Enzyme Lab: PETase, PET Degradation and Michaelis–Menten Kinetics

Surface-bound enzyme kinetics on solid PET: Michaelis–Menten with substrate surface area, crystallinity limiting access, the glass-transition effect, Arrhenius activity against denaturation, product inhibition and the PETase/MHETase cascade, with Blender-built assets in Three.js.

Surface-bound enzyme kinetics on solid PET: Michaelis–Menten with substrate surface area, crystallinity limiting access, the glass-transition effect, Arrhenius activity against denaturation, product inhibition and the PETase/MHETase cascade, with Blender-built assets in Three.js. Differs from the generic enzyme-kinetics sims by treating a solid polymer substrate (heterogeneous catalysis) and a temperature-versus-Tg optimum; a teaching model, not a lab protocol.
