Research Abstract |
We have demonstrated that the substrate specificity of cytochrome P450s can be altered by inducing their substrate misrecognition using a decoy molecule that has a structural similarity to those of natural substrate. Accordingly, we have succeeded in constructing a novel reaction system that catalyzes oxidation reactions of non-natural substrates without any mutagenesis. Notably, our reaction system can alter the enantioselectivity of products just by changing the structure of the decoy molecules.
