Abstract excerpt
Saturation mutagenesis at seven first-sphere residues of the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase 154E1 (CYP154E1) from Thermobifida fusca YX was applied to construct a variant with only three substitutions that enabled the effective two-step synthesis of the potential antidepressant (2R,6R)-hydroxynorketamine. A recombinant E. coli whole-cell system was essential for GC/MS based medium-throughput screening and at the...
