physiological role) has long remained unexplored. In this study, we demonstrate the atypical in vitro activity of human FMO5 as a Baeyer–Villiger mono-oxygenase on a broad range of substrates, revealing the first example to date of a human protein catalyzing such reactions. The isolated and purified protein was active on diverse carbonyl compounds, whereas soft nucleophiles were mostly non- or poorly
Single mutation of a “second sphere” residue of CHMOs could control its enantio- and regiopreference optionally.

mutations of selected cysteine and methionine residues in cyclohexanonemonooxygenase (CHMO) gave rise to two mutants with either oxidative or thermal stability. We propose that oxidation‐stable mutants might well be a “prerequisite” for thermostabilization, because laboratory‐evolved thermostability in CHMO might be masked by a high degree of oxidation instability.

and induced fit docking suggests potential randomization sites, different from all previous approaches to focused library generation. Sites harboring highly conserved proline in a loop of the WT are targeted. The most active and enantioselective mutants retain the high thermostability of the parent WT PAMO. The success of the "proline" hypothesis in the present system calls for further testing in future

accepted by the wild type. By using the known X-ray structure of PAMO, a decision was made regarding an appropriate site at which saturation mutagenesis is most likely to generate mutants capable of inducing allostery without any effector compound being present. After screening only 400 transformants, a double mutant was discovered that catalyzes the asymmetric oxidative kinetic resolution of a set of structurally
