H2-Driven Reduction of Flavin by Hydrogenase Enables Cleaner Operation of Nitroreductases for Nitro-Group to Amine Reductions
Hydrogenase-mediated reduction of flavin mononucleotide by H2 is exploited to enable cleaner application of nitroreductase enzymes for reduction of aromatic nitro functional groups. This turns the overall reaction into a biocatalytic hydrogenation. Use of flavin-containing nitroreductases in industr...
