چکیده
The title compound, C(19)H(26)O(4), was biotransformed from androstenedione. In the crystal, inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link molecules into a corrugated sheet, which lies parallel to the ab plane. Ring A has a slightly distorted half-chair conformation, rings B and C adopt chair conformations, while the cyclo-pentane ring D adopts a 14α-envelope conformation.

Molecular docking simulation studies on potent butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors obtained from microbial transformation of dihydrotestosterone
BACKGROUND Biotransformation is an effective technique for the synthesis of libraries of bioactive compounds. Current study on microbial transformation of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) (1) was carried out to produce various functionalized metabolites. RESULTS Microbial transformation of DHT (1) by using two fungal cultures resulted in potent butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitors. Biotransformat...
متن کاملMechanisms of steroid oxidation by microorganisms.
Two enzymes are responsible for the cleavage of pregnane side chains. A steroid-inducible oxygenase, in the presence of reduced nicotinamide adenine trinucleotide and molecular oxygen, catalyzes the conversion of progesterone into testosterone acetate. The latter ester is then hydrolyzed by an esterase to yield testosterone. The oxygenase has been partially purified and separated from the ester...
متن کاملMICROBIAL 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 کاملSubcellular Localization and Properties of Mouse Adrenal C , , - Steroid 5 P - Reductase
The localization and some characteristics of mouse adrenal C19-steroid 5fi-reductase were determined by the incubation of subcellular fractions of mouse adrenal tissue with [7a-3H]androst-4-ene-3,17-dione. This enzyme was present only in the soluble fraction and was NADPH-dependent, although a small activity in the presence ofNADH was also detected. The soluble fraction also contained 3 a-, 3,6...

3-Ketosteroid-∆1-dehydrogenase (KstD), a key enzyme in microbial steroid catabolism, catalyzes the trans-axial elimination of the C1 and C2 hydrogen atoms of the A-ring from the polycyclic ring structure of 3-ketosteroids, and it was usually used to transform androst-4-ene-3,17-dione (AD) to produce androsta-1,4-diene-3,17-dione. Here, the KstD from Gordonia neofelifaecis was expressed efficien...
