Boron-mediated directed aromatic C–H hydroxylation
Transition metal-catalysed C–H hydroxylation is one of the most notable advances in synthetic chemistry during the past few decades and it has been widely employed in the preparation of alcohols and phenols. The site-selective hydroxylation of aromatic C–

Auxin-induced SCFTIR1-Aux/IAA interaction involves stable modification of the SCFTIR1 complex [PDF]
The plant hormone auxin can regulate gene expression by destabilizing members of the Aux/IAA family of transcriptional repressors. Auxin-induced Aux/IAA degradation requires the protein-ubiquitin ligase SCFTIR1, with auxin acting to enhance the ...

Protein Hydroxylation by Hypoxia-Inducible Factor (HIF) Hydroxylases: Unique or Ubiquitous?
All metazoans that utilize molecular oxygen (O2) for metabolic purposes have the capacity to adapt to hypoxia, the condition that arises when O2 demand exceeds supply. This is mediated through activation of the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway.

In Vivo Evolution of Butane Oxidation by Terminal Alkane Hydroxylases AlkB and CYP153A6 [PDF]
Enzymes of the AlkB and CYP153 families catalyze the first step in the catabolism of medium-chain-length alkanes, selective oxidation of the alkane to the 1-alkanol, and enable their host organisms to utilize alkanes as carbon sources.

Efficient hydroxylation of flavonoids by using whole-cell P450 sca-2 biocatalyst in Escherichia coli
The hydroxylation is an important way to generate the functionalized derivatives of flavonoids. However, the efficient hydroxylation of flavonoids by bacterial P450 enzymes is rarely reported.

Characterization of porcine hepatic and intestinal drug metabolizing CYP450 : comparison with human orthologues from a quantitative, activity and selectivity perspective [PDF]
Over the past two decades, the pig has gained attention as a potential model for human drug metabolism. Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP450), a superfamily of biotransformation enzymes, are pivotal in drug metabolism.

Designed whole-cell-catalysis-assisted synthesis of 9,11-secosterols
A method for the synthesis of 9,11-secosteroids starting from the natural corticosteroid cortisol is described. There are two key steps in this approach, combining chemistry and synthetic biology.
