Considerations on activity determinants of fungal polyphenol oxidases based on mutational and structural studies

2021-02-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Polyphenol oxidases (PPOs) are an industrially relevant family of enzymes, being involved in the post-harvest browning of fruits and vegetables, as well as in human melanogenesis. Their involvement lies in their ability to oxidize phenolic or polyphenolic compounds, that subsequently form pigments. PPO family includes tyrosinases and catechol oxidases, which in spite of their high structural sim...
