Abstract excerpt
In the thermophilic cytochrome P450 from the thermoacidophilic crenarchaeon Sulfolobus tokodaii strain 7 (P450st), a phenylalanine residue at position 310 and an alanine residue at position 320 are located close to the heme thiolate ligand, Cys317. Single site-directed mutants F310A and A320Q and double mutant F310A/A320Q have been constructed. All mutant enzymes as well as wild-type (WT) P450st were expressed at...
