The toluene-degrading strain Rhodococcus opacus PWD4 was found to hydroxylate D-limonene exclusively in the 6-position, yielding enantiomerically pure (+) trans-carveol and traces of (+) carvone. This biotransformation was studied using cells cultivated in chemostat culture with toluene as a carbon

Limonene enantiomers and substrate analogs, including specifically fluorinated derivatives, were utilized to probe active site interactions with recombinant (-)-(4S)-limonene-3-hydroxylase (CYP71D13) and (-)-(4S)-limonene-6-hydroxylase (CYP71D18) from mint (Mentha) species. (-)-(4S)-Limonene is hydroxylated by both enzymes at the designated C3- and C6-allylic positions

The microbial biotransformation of (-)-trans-carveol to the flavor and fragrance compound (R)-(-)-carvone by Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 was carried out in a 3 L two phase partitioning bioreactor with an immiscible liquid second phase in an effort to improve upon the

The aqueous substrate and product toxicity thresholds in the microbial biotransformation of (-)-trans-carveol to the fragrance/flavor compound (R)-(-)-carvone by Rhodococcus erythropolis were determined. Above aqueous phase concentrations of approx. 500 mg carveol/l and 200-600 mg carvone/l, the biotransformation activity of
