Activity of human P450 2D6 in biphasic solvent systems
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Several limitations have restricted the use of P450 enzymes in synthesis, including the narrow substrate specificity of some P450 isoforms, the need for a redox partner and an expensive cofactor, incompatibility with organic solvents, and poor stability. We previously demonstrated that the natural redox partner and cofactor of the promiscuous P450s 3A4 and 2D6 can be efficiently substituted with some cheap hydrogen peroxide donors or organic peroxides. We report here that P450 2D6 maintains as much as 76% of its activity when used in buffer/organic emulsions. Product formation in biphasic solvent systems is comparable whether the natural redox partner and cofactor are used, or a surrogate. As reported for other enzymes, a correlation is observed between the logP and the suitability of a solvent for enzymatic activity. Moreover, the utility of our system was established by demonstrating the transformation of a novel hydrophobic substrate, not modified by P450 2D6 in the absence of organic solvent.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
