PPK is an enzyme that builds up a polyphosphate chain
PPX is an enzyme that breaks down the polyphosphate chain
Bacterial microcompartments are organelles consisting of a protein shell that encases enzymes and other proteins
Tagging PPK into microcompartments causes build up of polyphosphate and prevents polyphosphate degradation by PPX
