Abstract
The Front Cover shows the synergistic effects of a decoy molecule and directed evolution in cytochrome P450BM3. The developed P450BM3 mutant exhibits significantly high catalytic activity toward the hydroxylation of benzene, toluene, and propane in the presence of a natural decoy molecule, N-decanoyl homoserine lactone. This research demonstrates that exploring the vast combinations of mutations and decoy molecules—like a “space probe”—can lead to exceptional functional outcomes. More information can be found in the Research Article by S. Ariyasu, H. Sugimoto, O. Shoji and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.202401641).
期刊介绍：
With an impact factor of 4.495 (2018), ChemCatChem is one of the premier journals in the field of catalysis. The journal provides primary research papers and critical secondary information on heterogeneous, homogeneous and bio- and nanocatalysis. The journal is well placed to strengthen cross-communication within between these communities. Its authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories across the world. It is published on behalf of Chemistry Europe, an association of 16 European chemical societies, and is supported by the German Catalysis Society.
