Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Ar-BVMO is a recently discovered Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase from the genome of Acinetobacter radioresistens S13 closely related to medically relevant ethionamide monooxygenase EtaA (prodrug activator) and capable of inactivating the imipenem antibiotic. METHODS: The co-substrate preference as well as steady-state and rapid kinetics studies of the recombinant purified protein were carried out using...
