The biohydroxylation of a number of cyclic substrates (3-24) containing aromatic side chains was used to compare substrate specificity and selectivity of hydroxylation using microbial enzymes and whole-cell biocatalysts. In general, the regioselectivity of reaction was remarkably similar between the different catalysts in that little aromatic or benzylic, but significant aliphatic hydroxylation was observed. However, a more detailed investigation of isolated products showed complementary substrate specificity, functional group compatibility, and regioselectivity of hydroxylation. Substrate specificity and regioselectivity could be further modulated by small changes to the nature of the aromatic side chain, which appears to play an important role in substrate recognition, (C) 1999 Academic Press.
