Identification, function, and application of 3-ketosteroid Δ1-dehydrogenase isozymes in Mycobacterium neoaurum DSM 1381 for the production of steroidic synthons

Abstract: Background3-Ketosteroid-Δ1-dehydrogenase (KstD) is a key enzyme in the metabolic pathway for chemical modifications of steroid hormones. Only a few KstDs have thus far been characterized biochemically and applied for the production of steroidal pharmaceutical intermediates. Three KstDs, KstD1, KstD2, and KstD3, were identified in Mycobacterium neoaurum DSM 1381, and they shared up to 99, 85 and 97% amino acid identity with previously reported KstDs, respectively. In this paper, KstDs from M. neoaurum DSM 1381 … Show more

“…The biotransformation process is a rate-limiting step in the microbes producing steroid intermediates. It usually takes 120 to 144 h to realize a satisfactory conversion rate of the substrate to target steroid intermediates in the microbes [5,6,25]. However, it only takes about 48 to 72 h in most of other prokaryotic microorganisms [26][27][28].…”

“…Phytosterol biotransformation with M. neoaurum has been improved by manipulation of its methylcitrate cycle, a mechanism of detoxification of intracellular propionyl-CoA, a concomitant toxic byproduct [ 30 ]. Propionyl-CoA is the major by-product during β-oxidation of the phytosterol side chains and is toxic in high concentrations [ 31 ].…”

“…Phytosterols mainly exist in plants and are abundant in crops, such as beans and cereals, which are starting materials for steroid drugs production through mycobacterium transformation because of their low cost and environment-friendly attributes [4]. The gene-editing of the sterol side chain degradation metabolic pathway has made the industrial production of the steroidal pharmaceutical precursor by phytosterol biotransformation possible [5][6][7][8][9][10][11], but on the premise of improving production efficiency, reducing production costs is still the continuous pursuit of industrial production. Recently, studies on toxic metabolites, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the production process of strains, have provided new ideas for the study of phytosterol conversion [12,13].…”
