Flavoprotein monooxygenases, a diverse class of oxidative biocatalysts.
During the last decades a large number of flavin-dependent monooxygenases have been isolated and studied. This has revealed that flavoprotein monooxygenases are able to catalyze a remarkable wide variety of oxidative reactions such as regioselective hydroxylations and enantioselective sulfoxidations. These oxidation reactions are often difficult, if not impossible, to be achieved using chemical...
متن کاملBaeyer-Villiger monooxygenases, an emerging family of flavin-dependent biocatalysts
Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases (BVMO) are flavoenzymes that catalyze a remarkably wide variety of oxidative reactions such as regioand enantioselective Baeyer-Villiger oxidations and sulfoxidations. Several of these conversions are difficult to achieve using chemical approaches. Due to their selectivity and catalytic efficiency, BVMOs are highly valuable biocatalysts for synthesis of a broad ra...
متن کاملSearch, engineering, and applications of new oxidative biocatalysts
Most industrial enzymes are hydrolases, such as glycosidases and esterases. However, oxidoreductases have an unexploited potential for substituting harsh (and scarcely selective) chemical processes. A group of basidiomycetes are the only organisms degrading the aromatic lignin polymer, enabling the subsequent use of plant polysaccharides. Therefore, these fungi and their ligninolytic peroxidase...
متن کاملInorganic nanomaterial-based biocatalysts.
Over the years, nanostructures have been developed to enable to support enzyme usability to obtain highly selective and efficient biocatalysts for catalyzing processes under various conditions. This review summarizes recent developments in the nanostructures for enzyme supporters, typically those formed with various inorganic materials. To improve enzyme attachment, the surface of nanomaterials...
متن کاملBiocatalysts in Cancer Tissue
The accumulation of lactic acid in tumor tissue (15) suggests an inadequacy in the oxidative mechanism. A deficiency of one of the components of the oxidative mechanism, cytochrome c, was demonstrated in the first paper of this series (6). The present article reports the decreased activities of succinic dehydrogenase and of cytochrome oxidase in tumor tissues. These enzymes together with cytoch...
