We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.
3rwl is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Sphingopyxis macrogoltabida. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
Directed evolution of a monooxygenase to achieve very high enantioselectivity for hydroxylation at non-activated carbon atoms is demonstrated for the first time, where a triple mutant of P450pyr hydroxylase is obtained via determination of enzyme structure, iterative saturation mutagenesis, and high-throughput screening with a MS-based ee assay to increase the product ee from 53% to 98% for the hydroxylation of N-benzyl pyrrolidine to (S)-N-benzyl 3-hydroxypyrrolidine.
