cytochrome P450 BM-3 9-10A

The researchers in the Frances Arnold group at the California Institute of Technology used directed evolution and site-directed mutagenesis to create cytochrome P450 BM-3 9-10A, a catalyst that converts alkanes into alcohols. By increasing the size of the A82 and A328 sections, the researchers created a catalyst that could tightly bind small alkanes.
