1. Microsomal epoxide hydrolase : characterization, induction, and in vitro modulation, of the catalytic activity
Abstract : Microsomal epoxide hydrolase has been characterized, mainly in the fiver and lung of the rat.A reported radiometric assay using 3H-styrene 7,8-oxide as substrate has been modified by purifying the substrate before use, decreasing the incubation volume, and prolonging the incubation time.

2. Towards Understanding of Selectivity & Enantioconvergence of an Epoxide Hydrolase
Abstract : Epoxide hydrolase I from Solanum tuberosum (StEH1) and isolated variants thereof has been studied for mapping structure-function relationships with the ultimate goal of being able to in silico predict modifications needed for a certain activity or selectivity. To solve this, directed evoultion using CASTing and an ISM approach was applied to improve selectivity towards either of the enantiomeric product diols from (2,3-epoxypropyl)benzene (1). READ MORE

4. Biochemical Studies on a Plant Epoxide Hydrolase : Discovery of a Proton Entry and Exit Pathway and the Use of In vitro Evolution to Shift Enantioselectivity
Abstract : The work leading to this thesis has provided additional information and novel knowledge concerning structure-function relationship in the potato epoxide hydrolase. Epoxide hydrolases are enzymes catalyzing the hydrolysis of epoxides to yield the corresponding vicinal diols. READ MORE

5. Characterization of Epoxide Hydrolases from Yeast and Potato
Abstract : Epoxides are three-membered cyclic ethers formed in the metabolism of foreign substances and as endogenous metabolites. Epoxide hydrolases (EHs) are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of epoxides to yield the corresponding diols. READ MORE
