Characterization of a novel high-pH-tolerant laccase-like multicopper oxidase and its sequence diversity in Thioalkalivibrio sp.

Abstract excerpt

Laccases are oxidoreductases mostly studied in fungi, while bacterial laccases remain poorly studied despite their high genetic diversity and potential for biotechnological application. Our previous bioinformatic analysis identified alkaliphilic bacterial strains Thioalkalivibrio sp. as potential sources of robust bacterial laccases that would be stable at high pH. In the present work, a gene for a laccase-like...
