Fungal biotransformation of 6-nitrochrysene.
The fungus Cunninghamella elegans was used to biotransform 6-nitrochrysene, a mutagen that is a widespread environmental contaminant. After 6 days, 74% of the 3H-labeled 6-nitrochrysene added had been metabolized to two isomeric sulfate conjugates. These conjugates were separated by high-performance liquid chromatography and identified by UV-visible, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spec...
متن کاملFungal biotransformation of ezetimibe
Structural transformation of ezetimibe was performed by fungi Beauvaria bassiana and Cunninghamella blakesleeana. The metabolites were identified by different spectroscopic techniques as (3R,4S)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-((E)-3-(4-fluorophenyl) allyl)-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl) azetidin-2-one (2), (3R, 4S)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-(3-(4fluorophenyl)-3-oxopropyl)-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl) azetidin-2-one (3), (3R,4S) ...
متن کاملMetabolism of 6-nitrochrysene by intestinal microflora.
Since bacterial nitroreduction may play a critical role in the activation of nitropolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, we have used batch and semicontinuous culture systems to determine the ability of intestinal microflora to metabolize the carcinogen 6-nitrochrysene (6-NC). 6-NC was metabolized by the intestinal microflora present in the semicontinuous culture system to 6-aminochrysene (6-AC), N-...
متن کاملBiotransformation of Artemisinin Mediated through Fungal Strains for Obtaining
Artemisinin, a sesquiterpene lactone, is the active antimalarial constituent of Artemisia annua. Several fungal strains Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger and Picchia pastoris were used to biotransform artemisinin. Among these strains, A. flavus was the only microorganism capable of transforming artemisinin to deoxyartemisinin in higher yields than the previous repo...
متن کاملMetabolism and DNA binding of the environmental colon carcinogen 6-nitrochrysene in rats.
The environmental contaminant 6-nitrochrysene (6-NC) has been shown to induce adenomas and adenocarcinomas in the colons of rats. The present study aimed at providing a better understanding of mechanisms that are responsible for this effect. Three female CD rats were injected i.p. with [3,4,9,10-3H]6-NC [9 mumol/rat (346 microCi/rat)], and urine and feces were collected daily for 3 days. In the...
