From: In vitro oxidative decarboxylation of free fatty acids to terminal alkenes by two new P450 peroxygenases

Fatty acid conversion by the Aa162/Q85H/V170I and P450Bsβ/Q85H/V170I mutants compared to their corresponding wild-type enzymes. The hydroxylation (HD) activity was deduced by subtracting the 1-alkene production (corresponding to DC activity) from the total substrate conversion. a Lauric acid (LA) conversion and 1-undecene (1-UE) production; b palmitic acid (PA) conversion and 1-pentadecene (1-PE) production; c conversion ratios of different carbon chain length fatty acids (C10–C20) and d their corresponding 1-alkene production by the indicated enzymes. Results are presented as mean ± SD of duplicated experiments
