27. Incubations were performed for 12-15 mm at 45 °C in the presence of formaldehyde (5 μM) in 50 mM PIPES buffer, pH 7.1, total volume of 2.3 mL. Incubation with each isotopoiner was performed in duplicate.
28. Calculation of the tritium distribution in the methyl/methylene/water positions based on unity and infinite isotope effects gives the range 3:2:1 to 3.1.0.
29. 3 was quantified by scintillation counting (0.04 μCi. 0 5% overall conversion) Incubation was performed in duplicate.

37. This finding cannot be explained by any kinetic resolution due to the observed further oxidation of an intermediate alkoxy species, since both enantiomers of the substrate give the same result.
38. Such a phenomenon, considered very unlikely, was excluded in the studies with both sMMOs but could not be probed with the pMMO.
