A Promiscuous Bacterial P450: The Unparalleled Diversity of BM3 in Pharmaceutical Metabolism

CYP102A1 (BM3) is a catalytically self-sufficient flavocytochrome fusion protein isolated from <i>Bacillus megaterium</i>, which displays similar metabolic capabilities to many drug-metabolizing human P450 isoforms. BM3′s high catalytic efficiency, ease of production and malleable active...
