Recent progress towards realizing the potential of using P450s towards difficult oxidations have included: (i) eliminating the need for natural co-factors by replacing them with inexpensive peroxide containing molecules, (ii) exploring the compatibility of P450s with organic solvents, and (iii) the use of small, non-chiral auxiliaries to predictably direct P450 oxidation.
Progresos recentes que indican o grande potencial do uso de P450s para realizar oxidacións difíciles son: (i) evitar a necesidade de cofactores naturais ao substituílos por moléculas baratas que conteñen peróxido, (ii) explorar a compatibilidade dos P450s cos solventes orgánicos, e (iii) usar auxiliares non quirais pequenos para dirixir prediciblemente a oxidación do P450.
