Abstract

Abstract A gene from the marine bacterium Stenotrophomonas maltophilia encodes a 38.6 kDa FAD-containing flavoprotein (Uniprot B2FLR2) named S. maltophilia flavin-containing monooxygenase (SMFMO), which catalyses the oxidation of thioethers and also the regioselective Baeyer–Villiger oxidation of the model substrate bicyclo [3.2. 0] hept-2-en-6- one. The enzyme was unusual in its ability to employ either NADH or NADPH as ...
