Evaluation of P450 monooxygenase activity in lyophilized recombinant E. coli cells compared to resting cells

Abstract Cytochromes P450 catalyze oxidation of chemically diverse compounds and thus offer great potential for biocatalysis. Due to the complexity of these enzymes, their dependency of nicotinamide cofactors and redox partner proteins, recombinant microbial whole cells appear most appropriate for e...
