Protein engineering of cytochrome p450(cam) (CYP101) for the oxidation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
Mutations of the active site residues F87 and Y96 greatly enhanced the activity of cytochrome P450(cam) (CYP101) from Pseudomonas putida for the oxidation of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons phenanthrene, fluoranthene, pyrene and benzo[a]pyrene. Wild-type P450(cam) had low (<0.01 min(-1))...
