Dataset Information

Microarray dataset on the genome-wide expression profile of an M. smegmatis amtR mutant (JR258) compared to M. smegmatis mc2155.

ABSTRACT: The dataset presented here describes a microarray experiment to identify the AmtR regulon of Mycobacterium smegmatis comparing the transcription profile of a M. smegmatis amtR mutant to M. smegmatis wild-type. The raw and processed microarray data are available in the ArrayExpress database under Accession Number E-MTAB-4857 and interpretation of this data is found in the research article "Structure and function of AmtR in Mycobacterium smegmatis: implications for post-transcriptional regulation of urea metabolism through a small antisense RNA" (Petridis et al., in press) [1].

Project description:BackgroundPregnenolone and progesterone are the life-important steroid hormones regulating essential vital functions in mammals, and widely used in different fields of medicine. Microbiological production of these compounds from sterols is based on the use of recombinant strains expressing the enzyme system cholesterol hydroxylase/C20-C22 lyase (CH/L) of mammalian steroidogenesis. However, the efficiency of the known recombinant strains is still low. New recombinant strains and combination approaches are now needed to produce these steroid hormones.ResultsBased on Mycolicibacterium smegmatis, a recombinant strain was created that expresses the steroidogenesis system (CYP11A1, adrenodoxin reductase, adrenodoxin) of the bovine adrenal cortex. The recombinant strain transformed cholesterol and phytosterol to form progesterone among the metabolites. When 3-methoxymethyl ethers of sterols were applied as bioconversion substrates, the corresponding 3-ethers of pregnenolone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) were identified as major metabolites. Under optimized conditions, the recombinant strain produced 85.2 ± 4.7 mol % 3-methoxymethyl-pregnenolone within 48 h, while production of 3-substituted DHEA was not detected. After the 3-methoxymethyl function was deprotected by acid hydrolysis, crystalline pregnenolone was isolated in high purity (over 98%, w/w). The structures of steroids were confirmed using TLC, HPLC, MS and 1H- and 13C-NMR analyses.ConclusionThe use of mycolicybacteria as a microbial platform for the expression of systems at the initial stage of mammalian steroidogenesis ensures the production of valuable steroid hormones-progesterone and pregnenolone from cholesterol. Selective production of pregnenolone from cholesterol is ensured by the use of 3-substituted cholesterol as a substrate and optimization of the conditions for its bioconversion. The results open the prospects for the generation of the new microbial biocatalysts capable of effectively producing value-added steroid hormones.
