Journal ArticleDOI
Tuning P450 Enzymes as Oxidation Catalysts
TL;DR: The development of catalytic systems for the controlled oxidation of C–H bonds remains a highly sought-after goal in chemistry owing to the great utility of such transformation toward expediting the synthesis and functionalization of organic molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular basis of RNA recognition by the human alternative splicing factor Fox-1
Sigrid D. Auweter,Rudi Fasan,Luc Reymond,Jason Underwood,Douglas L. Black,Stefan Pitsch,Frédéric H.-T. Allain +6 more
TL;DR: The solution structure of the Fox‐1 RNA binding domain (RBD) in complex with UGCAUGU is reported, which demonstrates the unusual molecular mechanism of sequence‐specific RNA recognition byFox‐1, which is exceptional in its high affinity for a defined but short sequence element.
Journal ArticleDOI
Engineered Alkane‐Hydroxylating Cytochrome P450BM3 Exhibiting Nativelike Catalytic Properties
TL;DR: The goal was to engineer a P450BM3 variant with nativelike activity and coupling efficiency towards a structurally challenging, nonnative substrate (propane) and evaluate the impact of these features on performance in preparative-scale biotransformations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploiting and engineering hemoproteins for abiological carbene and nitrene transfer reactions.
TL;DR: This work highlights the latest additions to the hemoprotein-catalyzed reaction repertoire (including carbene Si-H and C-H insertions, Doyle-Kirmse reactions, aldehyde olefinations, azide-to-aldehyde conversions, and intermolecular nitrene C- H insertion) and shows how different hemop protein scaffolds offer varied reactivity and selectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly diastereoselective and enantioselective olefin cyclopropanation using engineered myoglobin-based catalysts
TL;DR: This work shows that myoglobin constitutes a promising and robust scaffold for the development of biocatalysts with carbene-transfer reactivity.
