Abstract
The phytoestrogen daidzein was metabolized by Nocardia species NRRL 5646 to give two metabolites obtained by hydroxylation and methylation. These metabolites were spectrally characterized as 7-methoxy-4'-hydroxyisoflavone (isoformononetin) and 7,8-dimethoxy-4'-hydroxyisoflavone. Mortierella isabellina ATCC 38063 was able to metabolize daidzein to the unusual metabolite daidzein-4'-rhamnopyranoside.Entities:
