More Details on Cytochrome P450 Metabolite Synthesis

Our partner InnoSyn have published further details on this valuable technology PRODUCTION OF DICLOFENAC METABOLITES BY APPLYING CYTOCHROME P450 TECHNOLOGY http://www.teknoscienze.com/tks_article/production-of-diclofenac-metabolites-by-applying-cytochrome-p450-technology/ Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases can catalyze highly regio- and stereo-selective oxidations of many organic compounds. Nevertheless, the scale-up of such biooxidations remains challenging due to the often-low activity, level of expression and stability of P450…
