چکیده

Nocardia species aromatized 19-hydroxyprogesterone, 3beta, 19-dihydroxy-pregn-5-en-20-one 3-acetate and pregn-5-ene-3beta, 19, 20beta-triol 3-acetate, without cleavage of the side chain, into 3-hydroxy-19-norpregna-1,3,5 (10)-trien-20-one. Septomyxa affinis aromatized the ring A and cleaved the side chain of 19-hydroxyprogesterone to yield estrone. With 19-hydroxypregna-4, 7-diene-3, 20-dione as substrate, the transformation was more complex and many products were formed.

Mycobacterium smegmatis PTCC 1307 (CIP 73.26) was used as a microbial agent to produce androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione (ADD) and androst-4-ene-3,17-dione, two useful precursors in the synthesis of steroid drugs. The side chain of cholesterol, as the substrate, was selectively cleaved in the presence of five enzyme inhibitors. An intermediate structure with intact side chain, cholest-4-ene-3-one, ...
