    Synthesis of cyclophosphamide metabolites by a peroxygenase from Marasmius rotula for toxicological studies on human cancer cells

    Cyclophosphamide (CPA) represents a widely used anti-cancer prodrug that is converted by liver cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes into the primary metabolite 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide (4-OH-CPA), followed by non-en...

    Fungal Peroxygenases: A Phylogenetically Old Superfamily of Heme Enzymes with Promiscuity for Oxygen Transfer Reactions

    Fungal unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs, EC 1.11.2.1) form a superfamily of heme proteins and possess promiscuity for oxygen transfer reactions. The first UPO was discovered in the agaric fungus Agrocybe aegerita i...
