Application

Cyclohexanone monooxygenase has been used in a study that cloned and overexpressed the 2-oxo-Δ(3)-4,5,5-trimethylcyclopentenylacetyl-CoA monooxygenase (OTEMO) in Escherichia coli. Cyclohexanone monooxygenase has also been used in a study that investigated the effects of structural modification of the cell wall on the biotransformation capability by recombinant Corynebacterium glutamicum cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Purified cyclohexanone monooxygenase has a molecular weight of 59,000 Da. It is a versatile oxygenation catalyst. The enzyme uses the bound FAD-4a-OOH oxygenating intermediate to initiate transfer of oxygen to electrophilic substrate sites. The reaction consequently yields the corresponding sulfoxide and selenoxide products. This enzyme is also capable of oxygenating at nitrogen, trivalent phosphorus, and boron sites in boronic acids. Hence, it is one of the most broad-based flavoprotein oxygenases known.

Unit Definition

Cyclohexanone monooxygenase (CHMO), a bacterial flavoenzyme, carries out an oxygen insertion reaction on cyclohexanone to form a seven-membered cyclic product, epsilon-caprolactone. The reaction catalyzed involves the four-electron reduction of O2 at the expense of a two-electron oxidation of NADPH and

We report a combined quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) study on the mechanism of the enzymatic Baeyer-Villiger reaction catalyzed by cyclohexanone monooxygenase (CHMO). In QM/MM geometry optimizations and reaction path calculations, density functional theory (B3LYP/TZVP) is used to describe the QM
