Identification of a Gene Encoding a New Fungal Steroid 7-Hydroxylase and Its Functional Characterization in <i>Pichia pastoris</i> Yeast
The hydroxylation of steroids in the C7β position is one of the rare reactions that allow the production of value-added precursors in the synthesis of ursodeoxycholic acid and other pharmaceuticals. Recently, we discovered this activity in the ascomycete <i>Curvularia</i> sp. VKM F-3040....
