The Origin and Evolution of Baeyer-Villiger Monooxygenases (BVMOs): An Ancestral Family of Flavin Monooxygenases.
The Baeyer-Villiger Monooxygenases (BVMOs) are enzymes belonging to the "Class B" of flavin monooxygenases and are capable of performing exquisite selective swuart oxidations.These enzymes have been studied from a biotechnological perspective, but their physiological substrates and functional roles are widely unknown.Here, we investigated the origi
