AbCYP82M3 catalyzes the synthesis of tropinone from 4-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)-3-oxobutanoic acid. Extracted ion LC/MS chromatograms in positive-ion mode (m/z 140.108 ± 0.02) for the tropinone (7) [M + H]+ ion from an authentic standard and a representative AbCYP82M3 enzyme reaction. AbCYP82M3 enzyme reactions lacking either NADPH or 4-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)-3-oxobutanoic acid (5) as well as those performed using microsomes extracted from the untransformed BY4742 yeast strain are included as negative controls
