In order to discover the steroid biotransformation ability of filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger TCCC41650, we studied the fermentation of 4-androstene-3,17-dione with A. niger TCCC41650. The transformation product was purified, crystallized and determined as 16β-hydroxy-androst-4-ene-3,17-dione by X-ray single crystal diffraction method. The best fermentation condition was found to be pH 6.0, ethanol amount 2% with a substrate concentration of 1 per thousand, the transformation rate is 85.81% after 72 h. Based on the best of our knowledge, 16β-hydroxylation rarely occurs in microbial transformations of steroid. This study laid the foundation for the research of 16β-hydroxylation steroids

17α hydroxylase is a key enzyme for the conversion of progesterone to prepare various progestational drug intermediates. To improve the specific hydroxylation capability of this enzyme in steroid biocatalysis, the CYP260A1 derived from cellulose-mucilaginous bacteria Sorangium cellulosum Soce56 and the Fpr and bovine adrenal-derived Adx4-108 derived from Escherichia coli str. K-12 were used to construct a new electron transfer system for the conversion of progesterone. Selective mutation of CYP260A1 resulted in a mutant S276I with significantly enhanced 17α hydroxylase activity, and the yield of 17α-OH progesterone reached 58% after optimization of the catalytic system in vitro. In addition, the effect of phosphorylation of the ferredoxin Adx4-108 on 17α hydroxyl activity was evaluated using a targeted mutation technique, and the results showed that the mutation Adx4-108T69E transferred electrons to S276I more efficiently, which further enhanced the catalytic specificity in the C17 position of progesterone, and the yield of 17α-OH progesterone was eventually increased to 74%. This study provides a new option for the production of 17α-OH progesterone by specific transformation of bacterial-derived 17α hydroxylase, and lays a theoretical foundation for the industrial production of progesterone analogs using biotransformation method.

Corynebacterium glutamicum, an important microorganism to produce amino acids and organic acids, has been widely applied in food and medicine fields. Therefore, using editing tools to study the function of unknown genes in C. glutamicum has great significance for systematic development of industrial strain with efficient and novel production capability. Recently, gene editing has been greatly developed. Traditional gene editing based on homologous recombination and gene editing mediated by nuclease are successfully applied in C. glutamicum. Among these, the CRISPR system has been developed to be a main tool used for gene knockout of C. glutamicum due to its advantages of efficiency, simplicity and good target specificity. However, more efficient and reliable knockout system is still urgently demanded, to help develop high-performing strains in industrial application.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
