Fungal laccases are extracellular multinuclear copper-containing oxidases that have been
proposed to be involved in ligninolysis and degradation of xenobiotics. Here, we show that …

In the last decades, the use of enzymes for environmentalfriendly industrial processes has
more and more increased, due to advancements in biotechnology, especially in the area of …

Laccases, blue copper-containing oxidases,≿ an play an important role in a variety of
natural processes. The majority of fungal laccases are encoded by multigene families that …

Fungal laccases are multicopper oxidase enzymes whose versatility has attracted increased
interest in the last decades. Despite to be known since the nineteenth century, the interest in …

A cDNA encoding LccIV, a previously uncharacterized laccase isozyme of the white-rot
basidiomycete Trametes versicolor, was expressed in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia …

Constant laccase activities were detected in culture supernatant of newly isolated
basidiomycete Trametes gallica. Tryptone and glucose have great effects on the production …

Laccases are blue multicopper oxidases, which catalyze the monoelectronic oxidation of a
broad spectrum of substrates, for example, ortho-and para-diphenols, polyphenols …

The white-rot fungus Phellinus ribis produced a single form of laccase, which was purified to
apparent electrophoretic homogeneity from cultures induced with 2, 5-xylidine. This protein …

Lignin is amorphous in nature, lacks stereoregularity, and is not susceptible to hydrolytic
attack. Despite its resistant nature, it is however degraded by various microorganisms …

Background Fungal laccases are multicopper oxidases (MCOs) with high biotechnological
potential due to their capability to oxidize a wide range of aromatic contaminants using …
