1.3.99.4 | synthesis |
engineered enzyme mutants, in which KsdDM is inactivated or augmented, are useful for production of phytosterols 4-androstene-3,17-dione or 1,4-androstadiene-3,17-dione, circumventing the difficulty of separating 4-androstene-3,17-dione from 1,4-androstadiene-3,17-dione, a key bottleneck to the microbial transformation of phytosterols in industry |

1.3.99.4 | synthesis |
inactivation of KstD isoforms 1-3 leads to synthesis of about 6.02g/l of 9alpha-hydroxy-4-androstene-3,17-dione from 15 g/l of phytosterols. The product is mixed with 1.55 g/l of 4-androstene-3,17-dione as a major byproduct. Overexpression of the oxygenase component of 3-ketosteroid-9alpha-hydroxylase kshA, results in a yield of 9alpha-hydroxy-4-androstene-3,17-dione of 7.33 g/l |
