Steroid Metabolism in Thermophilic Actinobacterium Saccharopolyspora hirsuta VKM Ac-666T.

Project description:The application of thermophilic microorganisms opens new prospects in steroid biotechnology, but little is known to date on steroid catabolism by thermophilic strains. The thermophilic strain Saccharopolyspora hirsuta VKM Ac-666T has been shown to convert various steroids and to fully degrade cholesterol. Cholest-4-en-3-one, cholesta-1,4-dien-3-one, 26-hydroxycholest-4-en-3-one, 3-oxo-cholest-4-en-26-oic acid, 3-oxo-cholesta-1,4-dien-26-oic acid, 26-hydroxycholesterol, 3β-hydroxy-cholest-5-en-26-oic acid were identified as intermediates in cholesterol oxidation. The structures were confirmed by 1H and 13C-NMR analyses. Aliphatic side chain hydroxylation at C26 and the A-ring modification at C3, which are putatively catalyzed by cytochrome P450 monooxygenase CYP125 and cholesterol oxidase, respectively, occur simultaneously in the strain and are followed by cascade reactions of aliphatic sidechain degradation and steroid core destruction via the known 9(10)-seco-pathway. The genes putatively related to the sterol and bile acid degradation pathways form three major clusters in the S. hirsuta genome. The sets of the genes include the orthologs of those involved in steroid catabolism in Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv and Rhodococcus jostii RHA1 and related actinobacteria. Bioinformatics analysis of 52 publicly available genomes of thermophilic bacteria revealed only seven candidate strains that possess the key genes related to the 9(10)-seco pathway of steroid degradation, thus demonstrating that the ability to degrade steroids is not widespread among thermophilic bacteria.

Anti-microbiological activities of bio-synthesized silver Nano-stars by Saccharopolyspora hirsuta.

Project description:A novel strain of Saccaropolyspora hirsuta was isolated from an insect Tapinoma simrothi for the first time and was morphologically and physiologically characterized. It was genetically identified using 16S rRNA and sequence similarity percentage in genbank with closely related species as strain ess_amA6 of Saccaropolyspora hirsuta. The accession number of strain ess_amA6 is KF996506. Antagonistic activity of strain ess_amA6 against some pathogenic Gram positive and negative bacteria, and unicellular fungus Candida albicans was studied. In addition, star shaped silver nanoparticles were biosynthesized using strain ess_amA6. The silver Nano stars were characterized by UV-us spectrophotometer. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis confirmed the conversion of Ag+ ions to Nano silver due to the reduction by capping material of extract. Transmission electron microscopically studies of biosynthesized Nano silver particles showed that they are spherical ranging from 10 nm to 30 nm in size. Silver atoms were checked in Nano sample by Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Bioactivity of biosynthesized Nano silver was observed against some pathogenic microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Salmonella typhi, pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumonia and Candida albicans. These tested microbes were highly sensitive to Nano silver. This study recommended that strain ess_amA6 can be used to effectively biosynthesize bioactive Nano silver compounds.

The actinobacterial mce4 locus encodes a steroid transporter.

Project description:Bioinformatic analyses have suggested that Mce proteins in diverse actinobacteria are components of complex ATP-binding cassette transporter systems, comprising more than eight distinct proteins. In Mycobacterium tuberculosis, these proteins are implicated in interactions of this deadly pathogen with its human host. Here, we provide direct evidence that the Mce4 system of Rhodococcus jostii RHA1 is a steroid uptake system. Transcriptional analyses indicate that the system is encoded by an 11-gene operon, up-regulated 4.0-fold during growth on cholesterol versus on pyruvate. Growth of RHA1 on cholesterol and uptake of radiolabeled cholesterol both required expression of genes in the mce4 operon encoding two permeases plus eight additional proteins of unknown function. Cholesterol uptake was ATP-dependent and exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a K(m) of 0.6 +/- 0.1 microm. This uptake system was also essential for growth of RHA1 on beta-sitosterol, 5-alpha-cholestanol, and 5-alpha-cholestanone. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that all mce4 loci in sequenced genomes are linked to steroid metabolism genes. Thus, we predict that all Mce4 systems are steroid transporters. The transport function of the Mce4 system is consistent with proposed roles of cholesterol and its metabolism in the pathogenesis of M. tuberculosis.
