摘要
In the past year, a number of oxidative enzymes have been the target of directed evolution. Catalase reaction specificity has been shifted to peroxidase, the high pH, thermal and oxidative stability of a fungal peroxidase has been dramatically improved, and the substrate specificity of cytochrome P450 has been altered to include substrates that the wild-type enzymes are incapable of oxidizing.
