The oxidation of polychlorinated benzenes by genetically engineered cytochrome P450(cam): potential applications in bioremediation
- Abstract:
- Polychlorinated aromatic compounds are persistent environmental contaminants; we describe here the redesign and engineering of the haem monooxygenase cytochrome P450(cam) to oxidise these compounds efficiently to the chlorinated phenols which are readily degraded by many micro-organisms, thus providing a basis for novel systems for biological clean-up of these inert compounds.
