title: Microbial Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of terpenones by recombinant whole-cell biocatalysts--formation of enantiocomplementary regioisomeric lactones.
abstract: Recombinant whole-cell expression systems for Baeyer-Villiger monooxygenases of various bacterial origin were utilized in the regiodivergent biooxidation of cyclic terpenones enabling access to enantio- and regioisomeric lactones on preparative scale.
