Investigating optimal conditions for lignin-degrading peroxidases production by
Phanerochaete chrysosporium (P. chrysosporium) has been a topic for numerous …

As components of plant material, cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin constitute a major
portion of the total carbon fixed by photosynthesis. Only a relatively small part is used in …

The oil crisis during the 1970s turned interest towards the utilization of renewable resources
and towards lignocellulosics in particular. The 1970s were also the cradle period of …

Over the past four decades, there has been immense progress in every area of lignin
science, ranging from the enzymology of lignin biodegradation, to the delignification of wood …

Lignin peroxidase oxidizes non-phenolic substrates by one electron to give aryl-cation-
radical intermediates, which react further to give a variety of products. The present study …

Biodegradation of crystal violet (N, N, N', N', N'', N''-hexamethylpararosaniline) in ligninolytic
(nitrogen-limited) cultures of the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium was …

Two families of peroxidases—lignin peroxidase (LiP) and manganese-dependent lignin
peroxidase (MnP)—are formed by the lignin-degrading white rot basidiomycete …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses a method for purification of the manganese
peroxidase of P. chrysosporium. It discusses assay methods for manganese. Manganese …

White rot fungi degrade lignin and have biotechnological applications in conversion of
lignocellulose to valuable products. Pretreatment is an important processing step to increase …

Glyoxal oxidase (GLOX) is an extracellular H2O2-generating enzyme produced by
ligninolytic cultures of Phanerochaete chrysosporium. The production, purification, and …
