Function[CPXB_BACME] Functions as a fatty acid monooxygenase. Catalyzes hydroxylation of medium and long-chain fatty acids at omega-1, omega-2 and omega-3 positions, with optimum chain lengths of 12-16 carbons (lauric, myristic, and palmitic acids). The reductase domain is required for electron transfer from NADP to cytochrome P450. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedThe power of proline: Bold amino acid substitutions in sensitive protein regions are frequently unproductive, while more subtle mutations can be sufficient to bring about dramatic changes. But introducing proline at the residue next to the sulfur ligand in P450(BM3) (CYP102A1) has the unexpected and desirable effect of enhancing the activity of this fatty acid hydroxylase with a broad range of non-natural substrates, as illustrated by the figure. A Highly Active Single-Mutation Variant of P450(BM3) (CYP102A1).,Whitehouse CJ, Bell SG, Yang W, Yorke JA, Blanford CF, Strong AJ, Morse EJ, Bartlam M, Rao Z, Wong LL Chembiochem. 2009 Jun 2;10(10):1654-1656.
