Bioconversion of 16-dehydropregnenolone Acetate to Exclusively 4-androstene-3,17-dione by Delftia acidovorans MTCC 3363.

چکیده
Delftia acidovorans MTCC 3363 was found to convert 16-dehydropregnenolone acetate (16-DPA) exclusively to 4-androstene-3, 17-dione (AD). Addition of 9α-hydroxylase inhibitors was not required for preventing the accumulation of byproducts. The effect of pH, temperature, substrate concentration, surfactants and carrier solvents on this bioconversion has been studied. 16-DPA was maximally converted in buffered medium at pH 7.0, at temperature 30°C and 0.5 mg ml-1 substrate concentration. Detergent addition and temperature above 35°C had deleterious effect on bioconversion. Dioxan was found to be the best carrier solvent for biotransformation of 16-DPA to AD.

Bacterial oxidation of steroids. II. Studies on the enzymatic mechanism of ring A dehydrogenation.
This paper describes the properties and partial purification from Pseudomonas testosteroni of enzymes concerned with the introduction of unsaturation into ring A of 3-ketosteroids. These enzymes promote the formation of the A1e4-diene-3-one structure from steroids bearing C-19 angular methyl groups and the formation of ring A phenols from lQ-nor-steroids. P. testosteroni is a strict aerobe whic...

3-Ketosteroid 9α-hydroxylase (KSH, consisting of KshA and KshB), a key enzyme in steroid metabolism, can catalyze the transformation of 4-androstene-3,17-dione (AD) to 9α-hydroxy-4-androstene-3,17-dione (9OHAD) with NADH as coenzyme. In this work, KSH from Mycobacterium neoaurum JC-12 was successfully cloned and overexpressed in Bacillus subtilis 168. The expression and purification of KSH was ...

Because of the importance of microbial metabolites of cholesterol as precursors in the synthesis of steroidal drugs, we decided to study the ability of Arthrobacter simplex to degrade cholesterol. Arthrobacter simplex cleaves the side chain of cholesterol in the presence of 2,2'-dipyridyl and produces 4-androstene-3,17- dione (AD) and androsta- 1,4-diene-3,17-dione(ADD). Two other intermedi...

Article history: Received 21 July 2016 Accepted 11 October 2016 Available online 26 October 2016 Background: 3-Ketosteroid-Δ-dehydrogenase (KSDD), a flavoprotein enzyme, catalyzes the bioconversion of 4-androstene-3,17-dione (AD) to androst-1,4-diene-3,17-dione (ADD). To date, there has been no report about characterization of KSDD from Mycobacterium neoaurum strains, which were usually employe...
