Abstract excerpt
The d-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) is pivotal in obtaining optically pure l-glufosinate (l-PPT) by converting d-glufosinate (d-PPT) to its deamination product. We screened and designed a Rasamsonia emersonii DAAO (ReDAAO), making it more suitable for oxidizing d-PPT. Using Caver 3.0, we delineated three substrate binding pockets and, via alanine scanning, identified nearby key residues. Pinpointing key residues...
