Glycerol dehydrogenase: Structure, specificity, and mechanism of a family III polyol dehydrogenase
Background: Bacillus stearothermophilus glycerol dehydrogenase (GlyDH) (glycerol:NAD+ 2-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.6) catalyzes the oxidation of glycerol to dihydroxyacetone (1,3-dihydroxypropanone) with concomitant reduction of NAD+ to NADH.

An NADH dependent reductase for isolated enzyme and whole cell catalysis.
Isolated enzymes and whole cell biocatalysts can both be applied for the synthesis of chiral hydroxy compounds. It is hypothesized that whole cells can easily be employed for such reactions using simple technology which is robust.

Asymmetric Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of Ramatroban Using Lipases and Oxidoreductases
A chemoenzymatic asymmetric route for the preparation of enantiopure (R)-ramatroban has been developed for the first time. The action of lipases and oxidoreductases has been independently studied, and both were found as excellent biocatalysts for the ...

Fungal aryl-alcohol oxidase: a peroxide-producing flavoenzyme involved in lignin degradation
Aryl-alcohol oxidase (AAO) is an extracellular flavoprotein providing the H2O2 required by ligninolytic peroxidases for fungal degradation of lignin, the key step for carbon recycling in land ecosystems. O2 activation by Pleurotus eryngii AAO takes place

Development of a Thioredoxin-Based Cofactor Regeneration System for NADPH-Dependent Oxidoreductases
Nicotinamide cofactor-dependent oxidoreductases have become a valuable tool for the synthesis of high value chiral compounds. The feasibility of biocatalytic processes involving these enzymes stands and falls with the efficiency of the regeneration of ...

Structural insights into alcohol dehydrogenases catalyzing asymmetric reductions
Alcohol dehydrogenases are a group of oxidoreductases that specifically use NAD(P)+ or NAD(P)H as cofactors for electron acceptance or donation and catalyze interconversion between alcohols and corresponding carbonyl compounds.
