Abstract excerpt
The lignin-degrading white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium produces two families of extracellular peroxidases designated lignin peroxidases (LIPs) and manganese-dependent peroxidases (MNPs) which are components of the lignin degradation system of this organism. The number and types of LIP and MNP isozymes produced vary dramatically in response to changes in culture conditions. Protease-mediated degradation...
