In this study, the biotransformation of progesterone (1) and testosterone enanthate (5) using the whole cells of Circinella muscae was investigated for the first time. Microbial transformation of 1 with C. muscae afforded three known metabolites including 9α-hydroxyprogesterone (2), 14α-hydroxyprogesterone (3) and 6β,14α dihydroxyprogesterone (4) after 6 days of incubation at 26 °C. The biotransformation of 5 with C. muscae yielded a new metabolite; 8β,14α-dihydroxytestosterone (8), in addition to two known metabolites; 6β-hydroxytestosterone (6), and 9α-hydroxytestosterone (7). The structure of the metabolites were established on the basis of spectroscopic data.
本研究首次考察了 Circinella muscae 全细胞对孕酮(1)和庚酸睾酮(5)的生物转化。在 26°C 孵育 6 天后,微生物转化 1 得到三种已知代谢产物,包括 9α-羟基孕酮(2)、14α-羟基孕酮(3)和 6β,14α-二羟基孕酮(4)。用 C. muscae 对 5 进行生物转化除了得到两种已知代谢产物 6β-羟睾酮(6)和 9α-羟睾酮(7)外,还生成了一种新的代谢产物 8β,14α-二羟基睾酮(8)。根据光谱数据确定了代谢产物的结构。
