Abstract
Using the bioresources of the Regional Specialised Collection of Alkanotrophic Microorganisms (acronym IEGM, Perm, Russia; WFCC # 285), R. rhodochrous IEGM 757 was selected, which catalyzed the C5, C22, and C23 functionalization of pentacyclic triterpenoid oleanolic acid (OA, 3β-hydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid, 1.0 g/L) to form a new 5α,22α-dihydroxy derivative of gypsogenic acid (3β,5α,22α-trihydroxyolean-12-ene-23,28-dioic acid) for 5 days. In silico analysis showed that, compared to the native triterpenoid, the OA metabolite may be more soluble in water and less ecotoxic, act as an apoptosis agonist and insulin promoter, and have chemopreventive and analgesic effects. Phase-contrast, fluorescent, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy and X-ray spectroscopy demonstrated the high resistance of R. rhodochrous IEGM 757 to OA. This creates opportunities for further research and development of a method for the production of the OA metabolite. New-generation sequencing of the R. rhodochrous IEGM 757 whole genome, annotation and bioinformatics analysis of the obtained sequences, and real-time PCR were applied. As a result, 24 genes encoding CYP450 enzymes were found, which are highly likely to be involved in the process of OA oxidation.
