Thrilled to share our preprint from an exciting collaboration with the Seyedsayamdost and Greene labs on non-canonical cytochrome P450s, including an X-ray crystal structure of the first known natively Ser-ligated P450! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Non-Canonical Cytochrome P450 Enzymes in Nature

Cytochrome P450s (CYPs) are a superfamily of thiolate-ligated heme metalloenzymes principally responsible for the hydroxylation of unactivated C–H bonds. The lower-axial cysteine is an obligatory and...
