Biotransformations on steroid nucleus of bile acids

, 1997
The bile acids in mammals are all derivatives of 5β-cholan-26-oic acid. They represent the major quantitative pathway by which cholesterol is metabolized in the body. This article covers the microbial and enzymatic transformations of free, saturated bile

Glycosylation of 3-Hydroxyflavone, 3-Methoxyflavone, Quercetin and Baicalein in Fungal Cultures of the Genus Isaria

Molecules, 2018
Flavonoids are plant secondary metabolites with a broad spectrum of biological activities. In nature, they occur mainly in the form of glycosides, but their extraction is often difficult and expensive, as is chemical synthesis.

Organoarsenical Biotransformations by Shewanella putrefaciens

, 2016
Microbes play a critical role in the global arsenic biogeocycle. Most studies have focused on redox cycling of inorganic arsenic in bacteria and archaea. The parallel cycles of organoarsenical biotransformations are less well characterized.
