Cholesterol catabolism is widespread in actinobacteria and is critical for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) virulence. Catabolism of steroid nucleus rings C and D is poorly understood: it is initiated by the CoA thioesterification of 3aα‐H‐4α(3′‐propanoate)‐7aβ‐methylhexahydro‐1,5‐indanedione (HIP) by FadD3, whose gene is part of the KstR2 regulon. In Mtb, genes of this regulon were upregulated up...
The cholesterol catabolic pathway occurs in most mycolic acid‐containing actinobacteria, such as Rhodococcus jostiiRHA1, and is critical for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) during infection. FadD3 is one of four predicted acyl‐CoA synthetases potentially involved in cholesterol catabolism. A ΔfadD3 mutant of RHA1 grew on cholesterol to half the yield of wild‐type and accumulated 3aα‐H‐4α(3′‐propanoate)‐7aβ‐methylhexahydro‐1,5‐indanedione...
