Lignin-degrading enzymes
The substantial potential applications of lignin-degrading microbes and enzymes have spurred research on lignin biodegradation in recent years. As described here, that research has led to the discovery in the basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium of the first lignin-degrading enzymes and elucidation of their mode of action. A family of powerful extracellular peroxidase isoenzymes has been t...
متن کاملThe Discovery and Promise of Lignin-degrading Enzymes
This paper briefly summarizes our research at the U.S. Forest Products Laboratory aimed at understanding how lignin is degraded by microorganisms. Our ultimate purpose is to gain the background knowledge needed to use lignin-degrading microbes and their enzymes in wood processing. Today such research would fall within the realm of biotechnology, although when we started that word had not yet be...
متن کاملLignin-Degrading Enzymes of the Commercial Button Mushroom, Agaricus bisporus.
Agaricus bisporus, grown under standard composting conditions, was evaluated for its ability to produce lignin-degrading peroxidases, which have been shown to have an integral role in lignin degradation by wood-rotting fungi. The activity of manganese peroxidase was monitored throughout the production cycle of the fungus, from the time of colonization of the compost through the development of f...
متن کاملCharacterization of lignin-degrading enzymes (LDEs) from a dimorphic novel fungus and identification of products of enzymatic breakdown of lignin.
Lignin is a major component of all plants, the degradation of which remains a major challenge to date owing to its recalcitrant nature. Several classes of fungi have been studied to carry out this process to some extent, but overall the process remains inefficient. We have isolated a novel alkalophilic dimorphic lignin-degrading Deuteromycete from soil, identified as "uncultured" and coded as M...
متن کاملPolymerization of pentachlorophenol and ferulic acid by fungal extracellular lignin-degrading enzymes.
High-molecular-weight polymers were produced by a crude concentrated supernatant from ligninolytic Phanerochaete chrysosporium cultures in a reaction mixture containing pentachlorophenol and a humic acid precursor (ferulic acid) in the presence of a detergent and H2O2. Pure manganese peroxidase, lignin peroxidase, and laccase were also shown to catalyze the reaction.
