Initial step in the catabolism of cholesterol by Mycobacterium smegmatis mc2 155.

Environmental microbiology - 1 Apr 2011

Uhía I, Galán B, Morales V, García J L

Abstract excerpt

The first step in the catabolism of cholesterol, i.e. the transformation of cholesterol into cholestenone, has been investigated in Mycobacterium smegmatis. In silico analysis identified the MSMEG_1604 gene encoding a putative protein similar to the ChoD cholesterol oxidase of M. tuberculosis H37...
