Amycolatopsis is a genus of high GC-content bacteria within the family Pseudonocardiaceae.[4] The genus is known for producing many types of antibiotics, including

Degradation of bio-polymers

Several bacteria from the genus Amycolatopsis are able to enzymatically hydrolyze the ester bonds of poly-lactic acid (PLA) films in aquatic medium. So far, it is one of the few known bacteria able to biodegrade the bioplastic outside compost facilities in a relatively short period of time.[6][7]
