Gene encoding the enzyme and new laccase enzyme

摘要

Strains of Melanocarpus genus, (57) [summary] The present invention, M. especially relates to a novel laccase enzyme that can be isolated from albomyces strain. The optimum pH of the enzyme is in the range of 5 to 8, the enzyme works at a temperature of 30~80 ℃. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was about 4.0 as determined by isoelectric focusing and a molecular weight of about 80kDa as defined by SDS-PAGE. Enzyme is very suitable for applications with high pH and temperature conditions in particular. The invention relates to a gene encoding a laccase enzyme, laccase enzyme also produced by recombinant techniques.
