Screening of Microorganisms Producing Cold-Active Oxidoreductases to Be Applied in Enantioselective Alcohol Oxidation. An Antarctic Survey [PDF]
Several microorganisms were isolated from soil/sediment samples of Antarctic Peninsula. The enrichment technique using (RS)-1-(phenyl)ethanol as a carbon source allowed us to isolate 232 psychrophile/psychrotroph microorganisms.

Enantiocomplementary Yarrowia lipolytica Oxidoreductases: Alcohol Dehydrogenase 2 and Short Chain Dehydrogenase/Reductase [PDF]
Enzymes of the non-conventional yeast Yarrowia lipolytica seem to be tailor-made for the conversion of lipophilic substrates. Herein, we cloned and overexpressed the Zn-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase ADH2 from Yarrowia lipolytica in Escherichia coli ...

Generation of Oxidoreductases with Dual Alcohol Dehydrogenase and Amine Dehydrogenase Activity [PDF]
The l‐lysine‐ϵ‐dehydrogenase (LysEDH) from Geobacillus stearothermophilus naturally catalyzes the oxidative deamination of the ϵ‐amino group of l‐lysine.

Expanding the Application Range of Microbial Oxidoreductases by an Alcohol Dehydrogenase from Comamonas testosteroni with a Broad Substrate Spectrum and pH Profile [PDF]
Alcohol dehydrogenases catalyse the conversion of a large variety of ketone substrates to the corresponding chiral products. Due to their high regio- and stereospecificity, they are key components in a wide range of industrial applications.

Nicotinoprotein [NAD(P)‐containing] alcohol/aldehyde oxidoreductases [PDF]
Extracts of Gram-positive bacteria like Rhodococcus rhodochrous, Rhodococcus erythropolis and Amycolatopsis methanolica, but not those of several Gram-negative ones, showed dehydrogenase activity for ethanol as well as for methanol when 4-nitroso-N,N ...

Structure of Alcohol Oxidase from Pichia pastoris by Cryo-Electron Microscopy. [PDF]
The first step in methanol metabolism in methylotrophic yeasts, the oxidation of methanol and higher alcohols with molecular oxygen to formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide, is catalysed by alcohol oxidase (AOX), a 600-kDa homo-octamer containing eight FAD ...
