چکیده

The biotransformation of lithocholic acid by Pseudomonas sp. strain NCIB 10590 under anaerobic conditions was studied. The major products were identified as androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione and 3-oxochol-4-ene-24-oic acid. The minor products included 17beta-hydroxyandrost-4-ene-3-one, 17beta-hydroxyandrosta-1,4-diene-3-one, 3-oxo-5beta-cholan-24-oic acid, 3-oxochola-1,4-diene-24-oic acid, 3-oxopregn-4-ene-20-carboxylic acid, and 3-oxopregna-1,4-diene-20-carboxylic acid. Anaerobiosis increases the number of metabolites produced by Pseudomonas sp. NCIB 10590 from lithocholic acid.

Biotransformation of chenodeoxycholic acid by Pseudomonas species NCIB 10590 under anaerobic conditions.

The metabolism of chenodeoxycholic acid by Pseudomonas sp. NCIB 10590 under strict anaerobic conditions was studied. A range of unsaturated acidic and neutral metabolites were isolated and identified. The major acidic product was chola-4,6-dien-3-one-24-oic acid whilst the major neutral product was androsta-4,6-dien-3,17-dione. The major acidic products were 7 alpha-hydroxy-5 beta-cholan-3-oxo-...

The degradation of cholesterol by Pseudomonas sp. NCIB 10590 under aerobic conditions.

The metabolic pathway of cholesterol degradation by bacteria has not been completely established. Several possible intermediates have not been identified and many pathway delineations have not involved the use of the cholesterol molecule per se and just one bacterial species. The bacterial degradation of cholesterol by Pseudomonas sp. NCIB has been studied. Major biotransformation products incl...

Purification and properties of ferredoxinNAP, a component of naphthalene dioxygenase from Pseudomonas sp. strain NCIB 9816.

One of the three components of the naphthalene dioxygenase occurring in induced cells of Pseudomonas sp. strain NCIB 9816 has been purified to homogeneity. The protein contained 2 g-atoms each of iron and acid-labile sulfur and had an apparent molecular weight of 13,600. The evidence indicates that it is a ferredoxin-type protein that functions as an intermediate electron transfer protein in na...

Respiration of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene by Pseudomonas sp. strain JLR11.

Under anoxic conditions Pseudomonas sp. strain JLR11 can use 2,4, 6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) as the sole N source, releasing nitrite from the aromatic ring and subsequently reducing it to ammonium and incorporating it into C skeletons. This study shows that TNT can also be used as a terminal electron acceptor in respiratory chains under anoxic conditions by Pseudomonas sp. strain JLR11. TNT-depend...
