Enterococcus faecium 19-46-4에 의한 Cholic Acid의 생산

Enterococcus faecium 19-46-4에 의한 Cholic Acid의 생산

Abstract

A facultative anaerobe Enterococcus faecium 19-46-4 was used to study the production of an antimicrobial substance in anaerobic conditions. Major part of the antibiotic activity was found in the culture filtrate of the bacterium. The active compound was extracted by an equal volume of iso-butanol and concentrated in vacuo (at 50$circ$C) before purification by C-18 liguid column chromatography and HPLC. A chromatographically pure compound was obtained by two passages of HPLC columns, The compound appeared as a pale-yellow powder. The yield was about 2.5 mg 1$^{-1}$ culture filtrate. The compound was named as KIST 194. KIST 194 were identified as cholic acid (3$alpha$, 7$alpha$, 12$alpha$-trihydroxy-5$beta$-cholan 24-oic acid) based on its physico-chemical properties determined by UV, IR, $^{1}H-NMR, $^{13}$C-NMR, El-MS and LC-MS.

Keywords: Enterococcus faecium, cholic acid, antibacterial substances, lactic acid bacteria
