Ginsenoside Rb1 is the most abundant ginsenoside in Panax (ginseng). The hydrolysis of this ginsenoside produces compound K, the biologically active ginsenoside of ginseng. We previously identified a fungus Paecilomyces Bainier sp. 229 (sp. 229), which can efficiently convert ginsenoside Rb1 to compound K. In this report, the ginsenoside hydrolyzing beta-glucosidases were isolated from sp. 229 and the pathway of the biotransformation of ginsenoside Rb1 to compound K by sp. 229 was investigated. Based on reverse-phase HPLC and TLC analysis, we found the main metabolic pathway is as follows: ginsenoside Rb1 -> ginsenoside Rd -> ginsenoside F2 -> compound K. Moreover, the results showed that there were other metabolic pathways: ginsenoside Rb1 -> ginsenoside XVII -> ginsenoside F2 -> compound K and ginsenoside Rb1 -> ginsenoside Rg3 -> ginsenoside Rh2. These processes would allow the specific bioconversion of ginsenoside Rb1 to various ginsenosides using an appropriate combination of specific microbial enzymes.
