Brazil’s territory encloses six terrestrial biomes (Amazon, Pantanal, Savannah, Atlantic Rainforest, and Caatinga-Savannah cactus) and a marine biome following the long coastline, yielding a wealth of native microbial species. Fungi found in different parts of Brazil are being studied for their enzymatic potential in biotransformation in organic synthesis processes. This review summarizes various studies on the bioreduction of activated C = C double bonds catalyzed by ene-reductases using fungi (filamentous and yeast) from the Brazilian environmental.
