Artificial metalloenzymes have emerged over the last decades as an attractive approach towards combining homogeneous catalysis and biocatalysis. A wide variety of catalytic transformations have been established by artificial metalloenzymes, thus establishing proof of concept. The field is now slowly transforming to take on new challenges. These include novel designs, novel catalytic reactions, ...

Recent studies on microbial cytochrome P450 enzymes have covered several new areas. Advances have been made in structure-function analysis and new non-enzymatic/electrochemical systems for the replacement of NAD(P)H in biocatalysis have been developed. Furthermore, the properties of some enzymes have been re-engineered by site-directed mutagenesis or by methods of directed evolution and new P45...
