Title: Microbial hydroxylation of progesterone with Acremonium strictum. Author: Faramarzi MA, Tabatabaei Yazdi M, Amini M, Zarrini G, Shafiee A. Journal: FEMS Microbiol Lett; 2003 May 28; 222(2):183-6. PubMed ID: 12770705. Abstract: Microbial hydroxylation of progesterone occurred in the culture of Acremonium strictum PTCC 5282 to produce two hydroxylated pregnene-like steroids. The metabolites were purified and characterized using spectroscopic methods and identified as 15alpha-hydroxyprogesterone and 15alpha-hydroxydeoxycorticosterone.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
