CYP3A4 Activity in the Presence of Organic Cosolvents, Ionic Liquids, or Water‐Immiscible Organic Solvents
Bibliographic record
Abstract
P450 enzymes have attracted the attention of chemists for decades because of their impressive ability to catalyze the hydroxylation of inactivated C--H bonds. However, their use for synthesis in aqueous systems is limited. We report here a survey of the activity of purified human CYP3A4 in the presence of organic solvents or ionic liquids. We show that CYP3A4 tolerates only small amounts (<15 %) of water-miscible organic cosolvents or ionic liquids before its activity toward testosterone drops below detection. [BMIM][PF(6)] in a biphasic system was less detrimental to enzyme activity, with 20 % of the activity remaining in the presence of 15 % of this ionic liquid. CYP3A4 activity in the absence of buffer was only >or=10 % in solvents of the alkane series, with a minimum of 0.85 % water, and with the addition of sucrose and testosterone before enzyme lyophilization. Biphasic solvent systems were more promising, with approximately 85 % of the activity retained.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
