Abstract excerpt
The bile acid-converting Peptacetobacter hiranonis is a Gram-positive, anaerobic, potentially spore-forming bacterium. It was first isolated from human feces and was subsequently shown to convert bile acids (BA) in both in vitro and in vivo experiments. The conversion of BA relies on the presence of the 7alpha-dehydroxylation multi-step pathway, encoded by the BA-inducible (bai) operon, harbored by P. hiranonis. I...
