Abstract excerpt
Laccases from basidiomycetes are efficient enzymes in the degradation of xenobiotics. In this study we aimed to provide an industrially relevant expression system for Lentinula edodes laccases, to characterize their enzymatic properties, and to evaluate their potential in bioremediation. Two 1573-bp allelic laccase genes from L. edodes L54 were cloned based on gene models in the genome sequence. A novel upstream...
