MICROBIAL TRANSFORMATION OF CHOLESTEROL BY MYCOBACTERIUM SMEGMATIS
Mycobacterium smegmatis PTCC 1307 (CIP 73.26) was used as a microbial agent to produce androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione (ADD) and androst-4-ene-3,17-dione, two useful precursors in the synthesis of steroid drugs. The side chain of cholesterol, as the substrate, was selectively cleaved in the presence of five enzyme inhibitors. An intermediate structure with intact side chain, cholest-4-ene-3-one, ...
متن کاملThe Influence of Sulfanilamide upon the Yellow Pigment Formed by Mycobacterium tuberculosis from p-Aminobenzoic Acid.
Previous reports from this laboratory have demonstrated that when a certain strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is cultured in Long's medium containing p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), a yellow pigment is produced (Mayer, 1943, in press). Chemical analysis suggests that the pigment is, or contains, an unstable oxidation product of PABA, possibly a hydroxylamine derivative. The addition of Fe, Mg, g...
متن کاملINHIBITION OF ESCHERICHIA COLI BY p-AMINOBENZOIC ACID AND ITS REVERSAL BY p-HYDROXYBENZOIC ACID
p-Aminobenzoic acid (PABA) exerts three metabolic effects on E. coli: it acts as a normal vitamin at low concentrations, as a source of another vitamin, p-hydroxybenzoic acid (POB), at moderate concentrations, and as a growth inhibitor at high concentrations (150 to 1600 microg./ml.). The inhibition is competitively reversed by POB in 1/100 the concentration of PABA. The inhibition is also reve...
متن کاملSeparation of p-Aminobenzoic Acid Derivatives
According to the literature, p-aminobenzoic acid (PAB) is excreted in the urine mostly as the free acid and its N-acetyl derivative; the remaining part is eliminated conjugated with glucuronic acid and as p-aminohippuric acid (PAH) (Ellinger & Hensel, 1914'; Hensel, 1914; Cohen & McGilvery, 1946; Salassa, Bollman & Dry, 1948). There is no agreement concerning the formation of PAH. Thus, Beyer, ...
