Dehydrogenases which depend on nicotinamide coenzymes are of increasing interest for
the preparation of chiral compounds, either by reduction of a prochiral precursor or by …

Abstract Baeyer–Villiger monooxygenases (BVMOs) are flavoenzymes that catalyze a
remarkably wide variety of oxidative reactions such as regio‐and enantioselective Baeyer …

Virtually all recombinant proteins are now prepared using fusion domains also known as
“tags”. The use of tags helps to solve some serious problems: to simplify procedures of …

Abstract Enzyme‐mediated Baeyer− Villiger oxidations offer a “green chemistry” approach
for the production of chiral lactones. Several organisms have been found to catalyze this …

Small aliphatic esters are important natural flavor and fragrance compounds and have
numerous uses as solvents and as chemical intermediates. Besides the chemical or lipase …

Considerable progress has been made in manipulating oxidative biotransformations using
oxygenases. Substrate acceptance, catalytic activity, regioselectivity and stereoselectivity …

Oxygenation reactions of ketones to esters are referred to as Baeyer-Villiger oxidations and
