Study of anoxic and oxic cholesterol metabolism by Sterolibacterium denitrificans.
The initial enzymes and genes involved in the anoxic metabolism of cholesterol were studied in the denitrifying bacterium Sterolibacterium denitrificans Chol-1S(T). The second enzyme of the proposed pathway, cholest-4-en-3-one-Delta1-dehydrogenase (AcmB), was partially purified. Based on amino acid sequence analysis, a gene probe was derived to screen a cosmid library of chromosomal DNA for the...
متن کاملMolybdoenzyme that catalyzes the anaerobic hydroxylation of a tertiary carbon atom in the side chain of cholesterol.
Cholesterol is a ubiquitous hydrocarbon compound that can serve as substrate for microbial growth. This steroid and related cyclic compounds are recalcitrant due to their low solubility in water, complex ring structure, the presence of quaternary carbon atoms, and the low number of functional groups. Aerobic metabolism therefore makes use of reactive molecular oxygen as co-substrate of oxygenas...
متن کاملPurification and properties of methylamine dehydrogenase from Paracoccus denitrificans.
Methylamine dehydrogenase from Paracoccus denitrificans was purified to homogeneity in two steps from the periplasmic fraction of methylamine-grown cells. The enzyme exhibited a pI value of 4.3 and was composed of two 46,700-dalton subunits and two 15,500-dalton subunits. Each small subunit possessed a covalently bound pyrrolo-quinoline quinone prosthetic group. The amino acid compositions of t...
متن کامل[Decreased hydroxylation of steroid hormones by liver microsomes from rats bearing Walker carcinosarcoma 256].
The hydroxylating activities of liver microsomes for proges terone and testosterone were markedly decreased in male and female rats bearing Walker carcinosarcoma 256. The decreases in the hydroxylating activities were greater in the male rats than in the female rats. The content of cytochrome P-450 in liver microsomes was decreased in the tumor-bearing male and female rats. Moreover, the bindin...
متن کاملCharacterization of 1 alpha-hydroxylation of vitamin D3 sterols by cultured alveolar macrophages from patients with sarcoidosis
We investigated the 1 alpha-hydroxylation of vitamin D3 sterols by cultured pulmonary alveolar macrophages (PAM) from patients with sarcoidosis with or without clinically abnormal calcium homeostasis. Like the naturally occurring renal 1 alpha-hydroxylase, the PAM 1 alpha-hydroxylation reaction exhibited a high affinity for 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 (25-OH-D3) and a preference for substrates contain...
