Cover Story: Unspecific peroxygenases (UPOs), the extracellular enzymes capable of oxygenating a potpourri of substrates with a peroxide as co-substrate, come out with a new reaction with the UPOs from Coprinopsis cinerea and Cyclocybe (Agrocybe) aegerita: carbon-chain shortening of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, through the subterminal (ω-1 and ω-2) carbons of the chain via several oxygenations, yielding 2C-shorter dicarboxylic fatty acids.
