- W4291010264 abstract "ABSTRACT The gut microbiome of vertebrates is capable of numerous biotransformations of bile acids, which are responsible for intestinal lipid digestion and function as key nutrient-signaling molecules. The human liver produces bile acids from cholesterol predominantly in the A/B- trans orientation in which the sterol rings are “kinked”, as well as small quantities of A/B- cis oriented “flat” stereoisomers known as “primary allo-bile acids”. While the complex multi-step bile acid 7α-dehydroxylation pathway has been well-studied for conversion of “kinked” primary bile acids such as cholic acid (CA) and chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) to deoxycholic acid (DCA) and lithocholic acid (LCA), respectively, the enzymatic basis for the formation of “flat” stereoisomers allo-deoxycholic acid (allo-DCA) and allo-lithocholic acid (allo-LCA) by Firmicutes has remained unsolved for three decades. Here, we present a novel mechanism by which Firmicutes generate the “flat” bile acids allo-DCA and allo-LCA. The BaiA1 was shown to catalyze the final reduction from 3-oxo-allo-DCA to allo-DCA and 3-oxo-allo-LCA to allo-LCA. Phylogenetic and metagenomic analyses of human stool samples indicate that BaiP and BaiJ are encoded only in Firmicutes and differ from membrane-associated bile acid 5α-reductases recently reported in Bacteroidetes that indirectly generate allo-LCA from 3-oxo-Δ 4 -LCA. We further map the distribution of baiP and baiJ among Firmicutes in human metagenomes, demonstrating an increased abundance of the two genes in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients relative to healthy individuals. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Bile acid synthesis by vertebrates is central to digestion and nutrient signaling. Gut bacteria have evolved enzymes capable of converting primary bile acids to hundreds of secondary bile acids. While bile acid microbiology has been focused on the metabolism of ring hydroxyl groups and the carboxylated side-chain, very little is known about how bacteria alter the shape of the steroid ring system. Here, we describe enzymes expressed by Firmicutes that convert the “kinked” primary bile acid into “flat” secondary bile acids. Decades of research indicate that increased levels of secondary bile acids are risk factors for colorectal cancer. Hidden Markov Models developed from the BaiP and BaiJ enzyme sequences revealed significant enrichment in metagenomes of subjects with colorectal cancer." @default.
