Production of dihydrodaidzein and dihydrogenistein by a novel oxygen-tolerant bovine rumen bacterium in the presence of atmospheric oxygen

The original bovine rumen bacterial strain Niu-O16, capable of anaerobically bioconverting isoflavones daidzein and genistein to dihydrodaidzein (DHD) and dihydrogenistein (DHG), respectively, is a rod-shaped obligate anaerobic bacterium. After a long-term domestication, an oxygen-tolerant bacterium, which we named Aeroto-Niu-O16 was obtained. Strain Aeroto-Niu-O16, which can grow in the presence of atmospheric oxygen, differed from the original obligate anaerobic bacterium Niu-O16 by various characteristics, including a change in bacterial shape (from rod to filament), in biochemical traits (from indole negative to indole positive and from amylohydrolysis positive to negative), and point mutations in 16S rRNA gene (G398A and G438A). We found that strain Aeroto-Niu-O16 not only grew aerobically but also converted isoflavones daidzein and genistein to DHD and DHG in the presence of atmospheric oxygen. The bioconversion rate of daidzein and genistein by strain Aeroto-Niu-O16 was 60.3% and 74.1%, respectively. And the maximum bioconversion capacity for daidzein was 1.2 and 1.6 mM for genistein. Furthermore, when we added ascorbic acid (0.15%, m/v) in the cultural medium, the bioconversion rate of daidzein was increased from 60.3% to 71.7%, and that of genistein from 74.1% to 89.2%. This is the first reported oxygen-tolerant isoflavone biotransforming pure culture capable of both growing and executing the reductive activity under aerobic conditions.

Transport Mechanisms for Soy Isoflavones and Microbial Metabolites Dihydrogenistein and Dihydrodaidzein Across Monolayers and Membranes

Isoflavone data concerning the metabolism and permeability on intestinal epithelial cells are scarce, particularly for microbial isoflavone metabolites. This study evaluates the absorption mechanisms for the isoflavones, genistein and daidzein, and their microbial metabolites, dihydrogenistein (DHG) and dihydrodaidzein (DHD). The permeability characteristics of isoflavones were compared by using the Caco-2 human colon adenocarcinoma cell line for a parallel artificial membrane permeability assay, and comparing their physicochemical properties. The data suggest that genistein, DHG and DHD were efficiently transported by passive diffusion according to the pH-partition hypothesis. Genistein was conjugated by phase II metabolizing enzymes and acted as a substrate of the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP). Daidzein was not conjugated but did act as a substrate for BCRP, multidrug resistance-associated proteins, and P-glycoprotein. In contrast, DHG and DHD were markedly more permeable than their parent isoflavones; they were therefore difficult to transport by the efflux effect, and glucuronidation/sulfation was limited by the flux time.     

Production of phytoestrogen <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>-equol from daidzein in mixed culture of two anaerobic bacteria

An anaerobic incubation mixture of two bacterial strains Eggerthella sp. Julong 732 and Lactobacillus sp. Niu-O16, which have been known to transform dihydrodaidzein to S-equol and daidzein to dihydrodaidzein respectively, produced S-equol from daidzein through dihydrodaidzein. The biotransformation kinetics of daidzein by the mixed cultures showed that the production of S-equol from daidzein was significantly enhanced, as compared to the production of S-equol from dihydrodaidzein by Eggerthella sp. Julong 732 alone. The substrate daidzein in the mixed culture was almost completely converted to S-equol in 24 h of anaerobic incubation. The increased production of S-equol from daidzein by the mixed culture is likely related to the increased bacterial numbers of Eggerthella sp. Julong 732. In the mixture cultures, the growth of Eggerthella sp. Julong 732 was significantly increased while the growth of Lactobacillus sp. Niu-O16 was suppressed as compared to either the single culture of Eggerthella sp. Julong 732 or Lactobacillus sp. Niu-O16. This is the first report in which two metabolic pathways to produce S-equol from daidzein by a mixed culture of bacteria isolated from human and bovine intestinal environments were successfully linked under anaerobic conditions.     

Identification of an enzyme system for daidzein-to-equol conversion in Slackia sp. strain NATTS

An Escherichia coli library comprising 8,424 strains incorporating gene fragments of the equol-producing bacterium Slackia sp. strain NATTS was constructed and screened for E. coli strains having daidzein- and dihydrodaidzein (DHD)- metabolizing activity. We obtained 3 clones that functioned to convert daidzein to DHD and 2 clones that converted DHD to equol. We then sequenced the gene fragments inserted into plasmids contained by these 5 clones. All of the gene fragments were contiguous, encoding three open reading frames (ORF-1, -2, and -3). Analysis of E. coli strains containing an expression vector incorporating one of the orf-1, -2, or -3 genes revealed that (i) the protein encoded by orf-1 was involved in the conversion of cis/trans-tetrahydrodaidzein (cis/trans-THD) to equol, (ii) the protein encoded by orf-2 was involved in the conversion of DHD to cis/trans-THD, and (iii) the protein encoded by orf-3 was involved in the conversion of daidzein to DHD. ORF-1 had a primary amino acid structure similar to that of succinate dehydrogenase. ORF-2 was presumed to be an enzyme belonging to the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase superfamily. ORF-3 was predicted to have 42% identity to the daidzein reductase of Lactococcus strain 20-92 and belonged to the NADH:flavin oxidoreductase family. These findings showed that the daidzein-to-equol conversion reaction in the Slackia sp. NATTS strain proceeds by the action of these three enzymes.

Isolation of an isoflavone-metabolizing, Clostridium-like bacterium, strain TM-40, from human faeces

Recently, the biological effects of isoflavones have attracted much attention. Intestinal microbiota plays an important role in the metabolism and bioavailability of isoflavones. However, few reports have discussed intestinal bacteria that metabolize daidzein into dihydrodaidzein. In this study, we isolated the dihydrodaidzein-producing intestinal bacterium TM-40 from a healthy boy's faeces. The bacteria from faecal samples were incubated with daidzein. Among all tested bacteria, one strain (strain TM-40) produced dihydrodaidzein both from daidzein and daidzin. However, in our experimental conditions, strain TM-40 did not produce equol from daidzein. The 16S rRNA partial sequence of strain TM-40 (AB249652) exhibited a 93% similarity to that of Coprobacillus catenaformis (AB030218). This strain seems to be a new species.

Stereospecific Biotransformation of Dihydrodaidzein into (3S)-Equol by the Human Intestinal Bacterium Eggerthella Strain Julong 732

Stereochemical course of isoflavanone dihydrodaidzein (DHD) reduction into the isoflavan (3S)-equol via tetrahydrodaidzein (THD) by the human intestinal anaerobic bacterium Eggerthella strain Julong 732 was studied. THD was synthesized by catalytic hydrogenation, and each stereoisomer was separated by chiral high-performance liquid chromatography. Circular dichroism spectroscopy was used to elucidate the absolute configurations of four synthetic THD stereoisomers. Rapid racemization of DHD catalyzed by Julong 732 prevented the substrate stereospecificity in the conversion of DHD into THD from being confirmed. The absolute configuration of THD, prepared by reduction of DHD in the cell-free incubation, was assigned as (3R,4S) via comparison of the retention time to that of the authentic THD by chiral chromatography. Dehydroequol (DE) was unable to produce the (3S)-equol both in the cell-free reaction and in the bacterial transformation, negating the possible intermediacy of DE. Finally, the intermediate (3R,4S)-THD was reduced into (3S)-equol by the whole cell, indicating the inversion of stereochemistry at C-3 during the reduction. A possible mechanism accounting for the racemization of DHD and the inversion of configuration of THD during reduction into (3S)-equol is proposed.Isoflavones are natural dietary phytoestrogens mainly occurring in the leguminous plants, such as soybean. Daidzein and genistein, two major isoflavones in soybean, have received a considerable attention due to their bioactivities beneficial to the human health, including estrogenic (9), anticancer (14), antioxidant (1, 21), and cardioprotective (11) activities. Recently, special interest has been focused on the biological effects of the daidzein metabolites, which are being actively studied for drug development (5, 16).Daidzein is known to be metabolized in the human intestine by the resident microflora, and various metabolites, such as dihydrodaidzein (DHD), 7,4′-dihydroxyisoflavan-4-ol (tetrahydrodaidzein; THD), 7,4′-dihydroxyisoflav-3-ene (dehydroequol; DE), O-desmethylangolensin (O-DMA), and equol, are detected in the human urine (Fig. ​(Fig.1)1) (6, 7, 10). Among the metabolites, (3S)-equol has about 100 times higher estrogenic activity than daidzein itself (15). However, only about 30 to 50% of humans can produce equol from daidzein (12). In addition, a high correlation was found between the beneficial effects on females by soy food intake and the presence of equol in their urine (4). Therefore, the ability to metabolize daidzein into equol conferred by the intestinal microflora in human is regarded as a hallmark of daidzein responsiveness (3, 34).Open in a separate windowFIG. 1.Proposed pathway for isoflavone daidzein reduction by intestinal microflora leading to equol formation. The absolute configuration of THD is depicted as (3R,4S) according to the conclusion of the present study.The daidzein metabolic sequence has been proposed based on the presence of various metabolites of daidzein produced by the human intestinal bacteria; daidzein is reduced into DHD, then into THD and DE, and finally into (3S)-equol in sequential reactions (Fig. ​(Fig.1)1) (7, 10). However, the pathway and the individual reactions in the pathway have not been fully elucidated partly due to the unavailability of pure microbial isolates.To confirm the proposed metabolic pathway of the human intestinal microflora, attempts have been made to isolate the daidzein-metabolizing bacterial phenotype from human feces. The reduction of daidzein into equol through the cooperation of the microfloral community in the human intestine is thought to be likely and was demonstrated by using the whole microflora from human (2) and monkey (23) feces. However, daidzein metabolism by the whole-rat intestinal flora results in the formation of DHD, and further reaction leading to the formation of unknown aliphatic compounds was implied (24).Various bacterial phenotypes have been suggested to have a responsible role in daidzein metabolism in the small intestines of animals. An anaerobic bacterium, Clostridium sp. strain HGH6 (8), and a Clostridium-like strain, TM-40 (27), were found to reduce daidzein into DHD, and the C-ring cleavage was executed by a strain of Eubacterium (25). A human intestinal bacterium that could produce equol was first reported in 2005. Eggerthella strain Julong 732, which could not reduce daidzein into DHD, was found to reduce DHD into equol (28), thus establishing the aforementioned reduction sequence leading to the biologically active (S)-equol from daidzein via DHD in the human intestine (7, 10). Eggerthella species are normal residents of the human gut, and some species are implicated as causative agents of bacteremia (13). The microbial phenotypes that can reduce daidzein all the way into equol were recently isolated from mice (19), rats (20), pigs (33), and humans (18, 32). Nevertheless, the enzymology of the reduction, such as the nature of the enzyme responsible and the reaction mechanism, has yet to be established.In the present study, the enzyme reaction mechanisms of two consecutive reduction reactions converting DHD into (3S)-equol were stereochemically assessed. To this end, four stereoisomers of THD were first synthesized, and their absolute configurations were determined. With the correlation of the absolute configuration of the synthetic THD isomers and the circular dichroism (CD) spectra at hand, the absolute configuration of THD produced through the cell-free bacterial reduction of DHD was determined. Each synthetic THD stereoisomer was then tested as a metabolic feedstock for (3S)-equol production during the growth of Julong 732. We found that only one of the THD steroisomers, (3R,4S)-THD, the very stereoisomer produced by the bacterial DHD reduction, was converted into (3S)-equol and that the final reduction accompanied the inversion of the configuration at C-3 of THD.

Biodegradation of leuco derivatives of triphenylmethane dyes by <Emphasis Type="Italic">Sphingomonas</Emphasis> sp. CM9

A leuco derivatives of triphenylmethane dyes degrading bacterium, strain CM9, was isolated from an aquafarm field. Based on morphology, physiologic tests, 16S rDNA sequence, and phylogenetic characteristics, it was identified as Sphingomonas sp. This strain was capable of degrading leucomalachite green (LMG), leucocrystal violet and leucobasic fuchsin completely. The relationship between bacterium growth and LMG degradation suggested that strain CM9 could use LMG as the sole source of carbon. The most LMG degradation activity of CM9 crude extract was observed at pH 7.0 and at 30°C. Many metal ions had little inhibition effect on the degradation activity of the crude extract. CM9 also showed strong decolorization of triphenylmethane dyes to their leuco derivatives. GC/MS analysis detected two novel metabolic products, methylbenzene and 4-aminophenol, during the LMG degradation by CM9.

Characterization of Fluoroglycofen Ethyl Degradation by Strain <Emphasis Type="Italic">Mycobacterium phocaicum</Emphasis> MBWY-1

A fluoroglycofen ethyl-degrading bacterium, MBWY-1, was isolated from the soil of an herbicide factory. This isolated strain was identified as Mycobacterium phocaicum based on analysis of its 16S rRNA gene sequence and its morphological, physiological, and biochemical properties. The strain was able to utilize fluoroglycofen ethyl as its sole source of carbon for growth and could degrade 100 mg l⁻¹ of fluoroglycofen ethyl to a non-detectable level within 72 h. The optimum temperature and pH for fluoroglycofen ethyl degradation by strain MBWY-1 were 30°C and 7.0, respectively. Five metabolites produced during the degradation of fluoroglycofen ethyl and were identified by mass spectrometry as {5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl) phenoxy]-2-nitrophenylacyl} hydroxyacetic acid, acifluorfen, 5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl) phenoxy]-2-nitrobenzoate, 5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl) phenoxy]-2-hydroxyl, and 3-chloro-4-hydroxyl benzotrifluoride. Identification of the metabolites allowed to propose the degradation pathway of fluoroglycofen ethyl by strain MBWY-1. The inoculation of strain MBWY-1 into soil treated with fluoroglycofen ethyl resulted in a higher fluoroglycofen ethyl degradation rate than in uninoculated soil regardless of whether the soil was sterilized or nonsterilized.     

Isolation of an anaerobic intestinal bacterium capable of cleaving the C-ring of the isoflavonoid daidzein

Colonic bacteria were screened for bacteria involved in the conversion of phytoestrogens. A gram-positive anaerobic bacterium, strain HGH 136, capable of conversion of the isoflavonoid daidzein, was isolated and identified as a Clostridium sp. The bacterium cleaved the C-ring of daidzein to produce O-demethylangolensin ( O-Dma). This compound was identified by comparison of the HPLC retention time and UV spectrum of the metabolite with chemically synthesized O-Dma. The identity of the metabolite was confirmed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and NMR using synthetic O-Dma as a standard. The bacterium incubated with synthetic dihydrodaidzein also produced O-Dma. After 3 days of incubation, 28% of added daidzein and 12% of added dihydrodaidzein were converted to O-Dma. This is the first study in which an anaerobic bacterium involved in the ring cleavage of daidzein to produce O-Dma has been identified.
