Journal ArticleDOI

Hydroxylation of testosterone by bacterial cytochromes P450 using the Escherichia coli expression system.

TL;DR: Two hundred thirteen cytochrome P450 (P450) genes were collected from bacteria and expressed based on an Escherichia coli expression system to test their hydroxylation ability to testosterone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regioselective biooxidation of (+)-valencene by recombinant E. coli expressing CYP109B1 from Bacillus subtilis in a two-liquid-phase system

TL;DR: The biphasic reaction system described in this work presents an attractive way for the production of (+)-nootkatone (4), as it is safe and can easily be controlled and scaled up.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolism of mono- and dichloro-dibenzo-p-dioxins by Phanerochaete chrysosporium cytochromes P450.

TL;DR: The white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium possesses biodegradative capabilities of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins, and a microsomal P cCYP designated as PcCYP11a3 has the highest activity toward PCDDs among the known CYPs derived from microorganisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insight into functional diversity of cytochrome P450 in the white-rot basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium: involvement of versatile monooxygenase.

TL;DR: It is suggested that multifunctional properties of the versatile PcCYPs would play crucial roles in diversification of fungal metabolic systems involved in xenobiotic detoxification and provide new insights that could also expedite practical applications in the biotechnology sector.
