Are branched chain fatty acids the natural substrates for P450(BM3)?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Branched chain fatty acids are substrates for cytochrome P450(BM3) (CYP102) from Bacillus megaterium; oxidation of C15 and C17 iso and anteiso fatty acids by P450(BM3) leads to the formation of hydroxylated products that possess high levels of regiochemical and stereochemical purity.

Analysis of the oxidation of short chain alkynes by flavocytochrome P450 BM3.
Bacillus megaterium flavocytochrome P450 BM3 (BM3) is a high activity fatty acid hydroxylase, formed by the fusion of soluble cytochrome P450 and cytochrome P450 reductase modules. Short chain (C6, C8) alkynes were shown to be substrates for BM3, with productive outcomes (i.e. alkyne hydroxylation) dependent on position of the carbon-carbon triple bond in the molecule. Wild-type P450 BM3 cataly...
متن کاملFlavocytochrome P450 BM3: an update on structure and mechanism of a biotechnologically important enzyme.
Since its discovery in the 1980s, the fatty acid hydroxylase flavocytochrome P450 (cytochrome P450) BM3 (CYP102A1) from Bacillus megaterium has been adopted as a paradigm for the understanding of structure and mechanism in the P450 superfamily of enzymes. P450 BM3 was the first P450 discovered as a fusion to its redox partner--a eukaryotic-like diflavin reductase. This fact fuelled the interest...
متن کاملCatalysts on Demand: Selective Oxidations by Laboratory-Evolved Cytochrome P450 BM3
Efficient catalysts for selective oxidation of C–H bonds using atmospheric oxygen are highly desirable to decrease the economic and environmental costs associated with conventional oxidation processes. We have used methods of directed evolution to generate variants of bacterial cytochrome P450 BM3 that catalyze hydroxylation and epoxidation of a wide range of nonnative substrates. This fatty ac...
متن کاملFormation of flavin semiquinone during the reduction of P450 BM3 reductase domain with NADPH.
Cytochrome P450 BM3 (P450 102) from Bacillus megaterium is a unique bacterial P450, formed from the fusion of a fatty acid hydroxylase to a eukaryotic-like NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase flavoprotein in a single (1 19 kDa) polypeptide chain (1, 2). It is an attractive model system for enzymological and structural studies due to its homology with mammalian drug metabolising P450 systems, and wi...
متن کاملTuning a p450 enzyme for methane oxidation.
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are heme-dependent monooxygenases that catalyze the oxidation of C H bonds of endogenous and exogenous organic compounds with formation of the respective alcohols. The mechanism involves the intermediacy of a high-spin oxyferryl porphyrin radical cation which abstracts a hydrogen atom from the substrate, and the short-lived alkyl radical then undergoes C Obond form...
