A Comparative Biochemical Study of Oleate Hydratases

Four oleate hydratases (Ohys) from diverse homologous families (HFams) were characterized side-by-side in terms of expression levels, oligomeric state, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) affinity, thermostability, and activity. A general favorable effect of the reduction of FAD to FADH2 for Ohy activity was demonstrated, with (R)-10-hydroxystearic acid (10-HSA) yield increasing up to 12-fold.
