Biocatalysis for oxidation of naphthalene to 1-naphthol: liquid-liquid biphasic systems and solvent tolerant strains

Biocatalysis involves the use of enzymes to perform stereo- and enantio-specific reactions. One of the reactions where biocatalysis is a valuable technology is oxidation of naphthalene to 1-naphthol using Toluene ortho-Monooxygenase (TOM) variant TmoA3 V106A, also known as TOM-Green. Whole-cell bioc...
