The present application provides engineered polypeptides having imine or oxime reductase activity, polynucleotides encoding the engineered polypeptides, host cells capable of expressing the engineered polypeptides, and methods of using these engineered polypeptides with a range of ketone and amine substrate compounds to prepare secondary and tertiary amine product compounds.

Cancers of different cellular or tissue origins express different ENOX2 cancer isoforms or combinations of isoforms and shed these proteins into the circulation. Herein are disclosed methods both for cancer detection and diagnosis of particular origin, based on the patterns and molecular weights of the isoforms which allow the identification of the cell type and or tissue of origin of the neoplasm. Relative ENOX2 amounts are proportional to tumor burden and provide a reliable measure of response to therapy and disease progression. Also provided is the amino acid sequence to which the scFv antibodies bind as the molecular basis for the specificity of the test.

The present invention includes methods for detecting benign to malignant transformation of a cancer in a subject, comprising the steps of: collecting a sample from the subject prior to electrophoretic protein separation; activating electrophoretically separated ENOX2 transcript variants with an ENOX2 electron donor; and detecting the presence of the one or more activated ENOX2 transcript variants using a pan-ENOX2 detectable binding reagent, wherein the presence of one or more activated ENOX2 transcript variants in the sample is indicative of the malignant transformation of the cancer, whereby a 10 to 100 fold increase in detection sensitivity is obtained for the one or more activated ENOX2 transcript variants when compared to an equivalent non-activated ENOX2 transcript variant.
