Publication Abstract from PubMed

Flavin-containing Monooxygenase (FMO) catalyzed the oxygenation of broad spectrum of substrates. FMO can also serve as biocatalysts in the Baeyer-Villiger reaction in organic synthesis. Here we report the high-resolution crystal structure of a Baeyer-Villiger Flavin-containing Monooxygenase (BVFMO) from methicillin- and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain MU50. The structure of Staphylococcus aureus FMO should facilitate further development of BVFMO as biocatalysts. A possible role of Staphylococcus aureus FMO in methicillin and vancomycin resistance is discussed. (c) Proteins 2014;. (c) 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
