Abstract excerpt
α-Hydroxyketones, which have significant industrial applications, can be sustainably synthesized through the oxidation of secondary alcohols using secondary alcohol dehydrogenase (SADH). However, the activity of the SADH oxidation reaction is generally low, making it unsuitable for large-scale production. In this study, a rational design approach was employed to computationally engineer SADH derived from Ogataea...
