    Abstract:
    Cytochrome P450 CYP107AJ1, which was isolated from Streptomyces peucetius and showed high homology with peroxygenases, catalyzed a dealkylation reaction with hydrogen peroxide to provide electrons, protons and oxygen, evading the requirement for a supporting redox protein. Preliminary investigation of its transcriptional level in S. peucetius showed significant expression. Homology modeling and subsequent docking with 7-ethoxycoumarin yielded a reasonable docked structure. cyp107AJ1 cloned into pET28a(+) was expressed in Escherichia coli, and soluble protein was subjected to column-chromatographic purification in order to carry out enzyme assays with 7-ethoxycoumarin. HPLC analysis of the extracted product, corresponding to its LC/MS analysis, showed the dealkylated 7-ethoxycoumarin, which was further established by subsequent GC/MS spectral analysis. We suggest that CYP107AJ1 bypassed the requirement for NAD(P)H and redox partners for generating novel analogues.
