Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis biooxidation of benzylic alcohols in the presence of various organic (co)solvents. The enzyme activity decreases at elevated concentrations of water-miscible polar solvents, while the presence of (halogenated) hydrocarbons is tolerated up to 90% (v/v), which leads to drastically improved conversions of up to >99% in case of hexafluorobenzene. This effect is correlated with the improved solubility of O2 in the employed solvents Methylovorus sp. MP688
