Directed evolution of nitrobenzene dioxygenase for the synthesis of the antioxidant hydroxytyrosol.

Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 98(11) , 4975-85, (2014)

Nitrobenzene dioxygenase (NBDO) is known to add both atoms of molecular oxygen to the aromatic ring of nitrobenzene to form catechol. It is assembled by four subunits of which the alpha subunit is responsible for catalysis. As an oxidizing enzyme, it has a po...
