Mechanistic and biocatalytic enzymology of flavoprotein oxidases
Tom A. Ewing
- 01 Jan 2018
TL;DR: The role of two tyrosine residues play a crucial role in enabling substrate activation by VAO, both by stimulating preferential binding of the phenolate form of the substrate and by deprotonating the substrate when it is bound in its protonated form.

Applications of Oxidoreductases
Sandhya Rani Gogoi
- 30 Oct 2020
TL;DR: Oxidoreductases are appropriate catalysts owing to their biodegradability, specificity and efficiency and may be employed as improved biocatalysts to substitute the toxic/expensive chemicals, save on energy/resources consumption, generate novel functionalities, or reduce complicated impacts on environment.
Multiscale modeling study of methanol oxidation by ion-modified MDH enzymes
Purnima Kharidehal
- 01 Jan 2014
TL;DR: In this article, the binding energy of methanol to the active site models of ionmodified MDH is determined and the effect of ion on methanoline oxidation is investigated using density functional theory (DFT) and transition state theory (TST).

Industrial biocatalysis today and tomorrow
TL;DR: Biocatalytic processes can now be carried out in organic solvents as well as aqueous environments, so that apolar organic compounds aswell as water-soluble compounds can be modified selectively and efficiently with enzymes and bioc atalytically active cells.
