Alkane hydroxylation yeast

Yeasts are able to degrade long-chain alkanes. The initial hydroxylation is carried out in micrososmes by cytochrome P-450, while degradation of the alkanoate is carried out in peroxisomes that contain the P-oxidation enzymes alkanoate oxidase, enoyl-CoA hydratase, and 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase. Further details are given in Chapter 4, Sections 4.4.1.2 and 4.4.4. [Pg.486]
