Figure 1From: Fungal cytochrome P450 monooxygenases of Fusarium oxysporum for the synthesis of ω-hydroxy fatty acids in engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae Reaction scheme of omega hydroxylation of fatty acids by Fusarium oxysporum cytochrome P450 monooxygenases ( FoCYP ) with the heterologous ( ScCPR ) and homologous ( FoCPR ) reductases. FoCYP539A7 can hydroxylate caprylic acid (C8), capric acid (C10) and lauric acid (C12) into their respective ω-hydroxy fatty acids, whereas FoCYP655C2 can hydroxylate only capric acid and lauric acid.Back to article page
