THE BIOTRANSFORMATION OF SOME STEROIDS BY CEPHALOSPORIUM APHIDICOLA

Hydroxylation of 5α-androstane-3-one and 3,6-dione by C. aphidicla takes place at C-17β and, in the case of the latter, at C-5α.The fungus reduces 5α-androstan-17-one and the 3,17-dione to the 17β-alcohols. Key Word Index - Cephalosporium aphidicola; fungus; microbiological hydroxylation; steroids.
