Abstract: A method of manufacturing methoxy-isoflavones by biotransformation and a use thereof are revealed herein. The method comprises the steps of synthesizing a nucleic acid sequence including a SpOMT2884 gene ofStreptomyces peucetius; cloning the nucleic acid sequence into an expression vector to form a cyclic recombinant plasmid; transforming the cyclic recombinant plasmid into a microbial expression system (Escherichia coli); and incubating the microbial expression system in a medium containing 8-hydroxydaidzeins therein for generating methoxy-isoflavones.

Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition is used to enhance immunity of the human body. The composition contains potent components of lanostane compounds. A method is devised to obtain an extract from metabolite, sclerotium, or fermentation product of Poria cocas (Schw) Wolf. The extract contains 5-60% of the lanostane compounds by weight of the extract. The extract is devoid of secolanostane capable of inhibiting immunity development.
