Are cytochrome P450 enzymes powerful industrial biocatalysts? Next to market demands,
well-defined enzyme functionalities and process parameters allow generalizations on the …

Oxidoreductases are an emerging class of biotechnologically relevant enzymes due to their
regio-and stereo-specificity. The selective oxygenation of aromatic compounds by …

A key limitation of whole‐cell redox biocatalysis for the production of valuable, specifically
functionalized products is substrate/product toxicity, which can potentially be overcome by …

Whole‐cell redox biocatalysis relies on redox cofactor regeneration by the microbial host.
Here, we applied flux balance analysis based on the Escherichia coli metabolic network to …

Styrene can efficiently be oxidized to (S)-styrene oxide by recombinant Escherichia coli
expressing the styrene monooxygenase genes styAB from Pseudomonas sp. strain VLB120 …

Lycopene is produced by recombinant Escherichia coli expressing genes to encode for the
lycopene biosynthesis. However, the productivity of lycopene seemed to be limited by many …

Enzyme-mediated oxidation reactions offer highly diverse options for the modification of
existing functional groups as well as for the introduction of novel function in chiral catalysis …

P450 (cytochrome P450) enzymes catalyse the mono‐oxygenation of a wide range of
compounds such as steroids, fatty acids, vitamins and drugs. In the present paper we …

Novel expression systems for the development of whole-cell biocatalysts were generated.
Their novelty consists both in the host, Pseudomonas putida, and in the ability to auto …

Whole cell biotransformation processes are of special interest for the synthesis of chiral
compounds since microorganisms offer some advantages in comparison to chemical …
