Bio-based production technologies may complement or replace petroleum-based production of chemicals, but they face a number of technical challenges, including product toxicity and/or water insolubility. Plants and microorganisms naturally biosynthesize chemicals that often are converted into derivatives with reduced toxicity

A gene encoding a Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenase (BVMO) identified in Pseudomonas fluorescens DSM 50106 was cloned and functionally expressed in Escherichia coli JM109. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and Western blot analysis showed an estimated 56 kDa-size protein band corresponding
