Abstract
Microbial hydroxylation reaction has greatly enriched the number of steroids and created many meaningful new compounds. The dihydroxylation of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) by filamentous fungi produces an important product 3β,7α,15α-trihydroxy-5-androstene-17-one (7α,15α-diOH-DHEA), which can be used as a key intermediate for the synthesis of contraceptive drospirenone. The introduction of microbial hydroxylation reaction reduces the traditional chemical synthesis process by 4 steps and greatly improves the productivity and economic efficiency. Colletotrichum lini is an industrial strain producing 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA, but the related cytochrome P450 that plays hydroxylation effect has not yet been discovered. In this work, a combination of quantitative proteomics, qRT-PCR, and functional expression in Pichia pastoris was used to identify highly induced steroid hydroxylase from Colletotrichum lini ST-1. A novel fungal cytochrome P450 monooxygenase CYP68JX was identified. The biotransformation in recombinant yeast confirmed that the cytochrome P450 has steroid C7α and C15α hydroxylase activities. The hydroxylation of DHEA by CYP68JX is an ordered reaction, proceeding from the C7 to the C15 site of the steroidal nucleus. The cloning and identification of the CYP68JX gene provide useful information for deepening the understanding regarding the structural basis of its regional and stereoselectivity.

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2021; 106:535-548.

Abstract
In this paper, we studied the transformation of two 3β-hydroxy-5-ene-steroids-pregnenolone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) by Backusella lamprospora VKM F- 944. The soil-dwelling zygomycete wild-type strain has been earlier selected during the screening and previously unexplored for this purpose. The fungus fully converted pregnenolone to form a mixture of axial 7α-hydroxy-pregnenolone and 7α,11α-dihydroxy-pregnenolone, while no metabolites with β-orientation of the hydroxyl group were detected. The pathway to 7α,11α-diOH-pregnenolone seems to include 7α-hydroxylation of 11α-hydroxylated derivative. The only product from DHEA was identified as 7α-hydroxy-DHEA. The structures of steroid metabolites were confirmed by HPLC, mass-spectrometry (MS), and 1H and 13C NMR analyses. Under the optimized conditions, the yield of 7α-OH-DHEA reached 94% (w/w) or over 14 g/L in absolute terms, even at high concentration of the substrate (DHEA) (15 g/L). To our knowledge, it is the highest yield of the value-added 7α-OH-DHEA reported so far. The results contribute to the knowledge of the diversity of the wild-type fungal strains capable of effective steroid hydroxylation. They could be applied for the production of allylic steroid 7α-alcohols that are widely used in medicine. KEY POINTS: • Zygomycete Backusella lamprospora actively hydroxylates 3β-hydroxy-5-en-steroids. • Axial 7α-hydroxylation is the preferable reaction by the strain towards pregnenolone and DHEA. • The strain selectively produces 7α-OH-DHEA even at high substrate concentrations (up to 15 g/L).

J Proteomics 2020; 224:103851. [PMID: 32485395 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2020.103851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2020] [Revised: 05/09/2020] [Accepted: 05/27/2020] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
Colletotrichum lini is used as an industrial stain for the dihydroxylation of steroid compound dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) to biosynthesize 3β,7α,15α-trihydroxy-5-androstene-17-one (7α,15α-diOH-DHEA), a key intermediate of the most popular oral contraceptive "Yasmin". This work aimed to enhance 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA production in C. lini CGMCC 6051 through ethanol induction. With 0.6% (v/v) ethanol induction and 10 g/L DHEA concentration, the 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA molar yield reached 58.8%, which was increased by 67.5% than that of the control. iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomic analysis was applied to explore the probable molecular mechanism of C. lini response to ethanol induction. A total of 50 differential expressed proteins was affected by ethanol induction, and could be related to multiple metabolic pathways. Most of differently expressed proteins were functionally mapped into pathways of transport, steroids metabolism, or redox reaction. Other proteins for energy, transcription and translation, and carbohydrate metabolism might have important roles in the cellular response to ethanol induction. In addition, the levels of cytochrome P450 and NAD(P)H-cytochrome P450 reductase were remarkably higher under ethanol induction, and their functions on DHEA dihydroxylation were first proposed in C. lini. Our results provide critical clues in revealing the dihydroxylation mechanism and are important for efficient microbiological hydroxylation of steroidal compounds in the future. BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE: iTRAQ strategy was first used to compare the proteomes of ethanol induction during the dihydroxylation reaction by Colletotrichum lini CGMCC 6051. The changes in protein provided a comprehensive overview of DHEA dihydroxylation in C. lini, including the proteins for steroids metabolism, redox reaction, transport, transcription and translation, energy and carbohydrate metabolism. Cytochrome P450, NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase, and NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase were highlighted due to their outstanding contribution to DHEA dihydroxylation. The results help us understand the molecular mechanism underlying ethanol induction in C. lini and would guide strain engineering to further improve dihydroxylation efficiency.

Abstract
3β,7α,15α-Trihydroxy-5-androsten-17-one (7α,15α-diOH-DHEA) is a key intermediate of the novel oral contraceptive "Yasmin" (widely used in birth control pills and postmenopausal hormone replacement therapy pills; the active ingredient is drospirenone). It can be synthesized from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) by microbial dihydroxylation at the C7 and C15 positions. Here we describe the method of bioconversion from DHEA into 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA by Colletotrichum lini. Using 6 g/L DHEA as a substrate, the DHEA conversion and the 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA molar yield were 72.6% and 51.2%, respectively.

Abstract
The use of methodical and innovative sonication method has been explored for the fabrication of inclusion complex of Benzyl Isothiocyanate, a potential anticancer and -antimicrobial agent. The advancement involved investigation of inclusion behaviour, characterisation and an in-depth study of thermal and UV stability of Benzyl Isothiocyanate with cyclodextrins; β-CD and hp-β-CD. The sonication driven encompassment in cyclodextrins helped to overcome the hindrance of low solubility and high volatility. Investigations of physical and thermodynamic parameters using UV-visible spectroscopy, FTIR, XRD, TGA etc confirmed stability of inclusion complexes. Both β-CD and hp-β-CD based inclusion complexes retained the antimicrobial property of the free Benzyl Isothiocyanate, indicating their potential utility as antimicrobial agents. Haematological safety and cellular uptake data gives direction to in-depth analysis for its exploitation of anti-tumour activity.

Abstract
3β,7α,15α-Trihydroxy-5-androsten-17-one (7α,15α-diOH-DHEA) is a key intermediate of the novel oral contraceptive Yasmin. It can be catalyzed from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) through Colletotrichum lini. Improvement of 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA production was performed through recursive protoplast fusion of C. lini ST in a genome shuffling format. 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA yield of the best performing recombinant C. lini ST-F307 reached 6.08 g/L from 10 g/L DHEA, and this was 94.9% higher than that of the initial C. lini ST strain. Through optimized conditions, the 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA yield was increased to 9.32 g/L from 12 g/L DHEA, with 1.5% ethanol as cosolvent. This is the highest reported substrate concentration and 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA production with one-step substrate addition. Moreover, C. lini ST-F307 showed high P450 enzyme activity and gene transcript levels of several cytochrome P450s, and this might contribute to the enhancement of 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA production. Genome shuffling was an efficient approach to breed high-yield strains.

Abstract
AIMS 3-ketosteroid-Δ1 -dehydrogenase (KSDD), a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent enzyme involved in sterol metabolism, specifically catalyses the conversion of androst-4-ene-3,17-dione (AD) to androst-1,4-diene-3,17-dione (ADD). However, the low KSDD activity and the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) generated during the biotransformation of AD to ADD with FAD regeneration hinder its application on AD conversion. The aim of this work was to improve KSDD activity and eliminate the toxic effects of the generated H2 O2 to enhance ADD production. METHODS AND RESULTS The ksdd gene obtained from Mycobacterium neoaurum JC-12 was codon-optimized to increase its expression level in Bacillus subtilis, and the KSDD activity reached 12·3 U mg-1 , which was sevenfold of that of codon-unoptimized gene. To improve AD conversion, catalase was co-expressed with KSDD in B. subtilis 168/pMA5-ksddopt -katA to eliminate the toxic effects of H2 O2 generated during AD conversion. Finally, under optimized bioconversion conditions, fed-batch strategy was carried out and the ADD yield improved to 8·76 g l-1 . CONCLUSIONS This work demonstrates the potential to improve enzyme activity by codon-optimization and eliminate the toxic effects of H2 O2 by co-expressing catalase. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study showed the highest ADD productivity ever reported and provides a promising strain for efficient ADD production in the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
To improve the androst-1,4-diene-3,17-dione (ADD) production from phytosterol by Mycobacterium neoaurum JC-12, fructose was firstly found favorable as the initial carbon source to increase the biomass and eliminate the lag phase of M. neoaurum JC-12 in the phytosterol transformation process. Based on this phenomenon, two-stage fermentation by using fructose as the initial carbon source and feeding glucose to maintain strain metabolism was designed. By applying this strategy, the fermentation duration was decreased from 168 h to 120 h with the ADD productivity increased from 0.071 g/(L·h) to 0.108 g/(L·h). Further, three-stage fermentation by adding phytosterol to improve ADD production at the end of the two-stage fermentation was carried out and the final ADD production reached 18.6 g/L, which is the highest reported ADD production using phytosterol as substrate. Thus, this strategy provides a possible way in enhancing the ADD production in pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
Hydroxylation of DHEA to 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA was catalyzed by NADPH-dependent cytochrome P450 monooxygenase from Colletotrichum lini. By adding coenzyme precursor nicotinic acid, the NADPH/NADP ratio was significantly increased, and the 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA molar conversion was enhanced from 37.37% to 50.85%. To improve the availability of intracellular NADPH, a dual cosubstrate-coupled system consisting of nicotinic acid and glucose was investigated in C. lini. Using 20mM nicotinic acid and 15g/L glucose as cosubstrate for NADPH regeneration, the 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA molar conversion was dramatically increased by 74.58%. The conversion course was simultaneously shortened by 30h. Moreover, a fed-batch transformation model was established to diminish DHEA toxicity to C. lini and further increase DHEA concentration. The maximum concentration of DHEA was elevated to 15g/L using a three-batch transformation in a coenzyme regeneration system, and 7α,15α-diOH-DHEA production of 11.21g/L could be achieved after 60h of biotransformation. These results demonstrated that this strategy was promising for steroids hydroxylation.
