Abstract excerpt
Directed evolution of a monooxygenase to achieve very high enantioselectivity for hydroxylation at non-activated carbon atoms is demonstrated for the first time, where a triple mutant of P450pyr hydroxylase is obtained via determination of enzyme structure, iterative saturation mutagenesis, and high-throughput screening with a MS-based ee assay to increase the product ee from 53% to 98% for the hydroxylation of...
