微生物转化技术在中药研究中的应用越来越广泛，利用光合细菌对中药进行生物转化处理已成为微生物转化领域的研究热点之一。搜集光合细菌生物转化中药相关研究文献，综述了光合细菌转化中药的药理药效学、药效物质基础和转化机制，并指出有待进一步研究的问题。

Microbial transformation technology has been applied in the study of Chinese materia medica (CMM) widely. Photosynthetic bacteria biotransformation in the research of Chinese medicine pharmaceutics has become one of the focuses in the field of microbial transformation technology. In this paper, we summarized the pharmacological activity and pharmacodynamic material bases of CMM metabolized by photosynthetic bacteria, in addition, summarized the mechanism of photosynthetic bacteria biotransformation. We also pointed out the problems needed to be studied in the future.
