Structural and Functional Characterisation of a Metagenome‐Derived CYP108D18 Reveals an Unusual Dioxygen‐Bound State and Selective Hydrocarbon Hydroxylation

ABSTRACT Cytochrome P450 enzymes form a large superfamily of monooxygenases capable of oxidising diverse substrates. Among them, members of the CYP108 family are recognised for their role in monoterpenoid oxidation. In this study, we report the identification and characterisation of a new CYP108 family member, CYP108D1...

Mechanism for Aromatic Nitration Catalyzed by Cytochrome P450 Enzymes from Rufomycin Biosynthesis

These experiments revealed the intimate and necessary involvement of a histidine residue within the pentapeptide substrate of RufO in supporting effective nitration, with the protonation state of the intermediate compound II proposed to influence the production of nitrated tyrosine over unwanted nitrate formation.
