Article Citation - WoS: 27Citation - Scopus: 30Biotransformation of Cyclocanthogenol by the Endophytic Fungus Alternaria Eureka 1e1bl1(Elsevier Ltd., 2018) Ekiz, Güner; Duman, Seda; Bedir, ErdalThe microbial transformation of cyclocanthogenol (CCG), Astragalus sp. originated sapogenin, by the endophytic fungus Alternaria eureka 1E1BL1 isolated from Astragalus angustifolius was investigated. Hydroxylation, oxidation, epoxidation, O-methylation, ring-expansion and methyl migration reactions were observed on the triterpenoid skeleton. As a result, eight metabolites were isolated and the structures of the previously undescribed compounds were established by 1-D, 2-D NMR and HR-MS analyses.Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 24Biotransformation of Neoruscogenin by the Endophytic Fungus Alternaria Eureka(American Chemical Society, 2018) Özçınar, Özge; Tağ, Özgür; Yusufoğlu, Hasan; Kıvçak, Bijen; Bedir, ErdalBiotransformation of neoruscogenin (NR, 1, spirosta-5,25(27)-diene-1β,3β-diol), the major bioactive sapogenin of Ruscus preparations, was carried out with the endophytic fungus Alternaria eureka. Fourteen new biotransformation products (2-15) were isolated, and their structures were elucidated by NMR and HRESIMS data analyses. A. eureka affected mainly oxygenation, oxidation, and epoxidation reactions on the B and C rings of the sapogenin to afford compounds 8-15. In addition to these, cleavage of the spiroketal system as in compounds 2-7 and subsequent transformations provided unusual metabolites. This is the first study reporting conversion of the spirostanol skeleton to cholestane-type metabolites 2-5. Additionally, the cleavage of the C-22/C-26 oxygen bridge yielding a furostanol-type steroidal framework and subsequent formation of the epoxy bridge between C-18 and C-22 in 7 was encountered for the first time in steroid chemistry.
