Abstract:
Microbial transformation of xanthohumol using the culture broth of Pichia membranifaciens afforded three metabolites, (E)-2"-(2"'-hydroxyisopropyl)-dihydrofurano[2",3":4',3']-2', 4-dihydroxy-6'-methoxychalcone, (2S)-2"-(2"'-hydroxyisopropyl)-dihydrofurano[2",3":7,8]-4'-hydroxy-5-methoxyflavanone and (E)-2"-(2"'-hydroxyisopropyl)-dihydrofurano[2",3":2',3']-4'-hydroxy-5-methoxychalcone.
