چکیده

O-Methyltransferase, POMT-9 was expressed in Escherichia coli. HPLC analysis of reaction products revealed three peaks corresponding to isoscopoletin, scopoletin, and scoparone, and their structures were determined using NMR. Biotransformation of esculetin with E. coli expressing POMT-9 generated scopoletin, isoscopoletin, and scoparone at 30.3, 21, and 31 microM respectively. POMT-9 is the first O-methyltransferase that produces three different O-methylated products.

Optimization of rhamnetin production in Escherichia coli.

POMT7, which is an O-methyltransferase from poplar, transfers a methyl group to several flavonoids that contain a 7-hydroxyl group. POMT7 has been shown to have a higher affinity toward quercetin, and the reaction product rhamnetin has been shown to inhibit the formation of beta-amyloid. Thus, rhamnetin holds great promise for use in therapeutic applications; however, methods for mass productio...

Production of Two Novel Methoxy-Isoflavones from Biotransformation of 8-Hydroxydaidzein by Recombinant Escherichia coli Expressing O-Methyltransferase SpOMT2884 from Streptomyces peucetius

Biotransformation of 8-hydroxydaidzein by recombinant Escherichia coli expressing O-methyltransferase (OMT) SpOMT2884 from Streptomyces peucetius was investigated. Two metabolites were isolated and identified as 7,4'-dihydroxy-8-methoxy-isoflavone (1) and 8,4'-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-isoflavone (2), based on mass, 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and 13C-NMR spectrophotometric analysis. The maxi...

Molecular characterization of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli isolated from neonatal calves diarrhea

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) produces different virulence factors allowing the bacterium to colonize and develop watery diarrhea. Proteomics studies have also introduced new protein belonging to the secretion pathways, antigen 43 (Ag43), which plays important role in E. coli pathogenesis. The objective of this study was to investigate O-types and virulence factors o...
