Identification of “missing links” in C- and D-ring cleavage of steroids by <i>Comamonas testosteroni</i> TA441

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Comamonas testosteroni TA441 degrades steroids aerobically via aromatization and cleavage of the A- and B-ring, followed by D- and C-ring cleavage via b-oxidation. We previously characterized most of the above degradation steps; however, a few intermediate compounds remained unaccounted for. We hypothesized that cleavage of the D-ring at C13-17 required the ScdY hydratase and was followed by cle...
