Laccase was first studied by Hikorokuro Yoshida in 1883 and then by Gabriel Bertrand [6] in 1894 [7] in the sap of the Japanese lacquer tree, where it helps to form lacquer, hence the name laccase.

Discovered in 1883, laccase is one of the first enzymes ever described. Now, after almost 140 years of research, it seems that this copper-containing protein with a number of unique catalytic properties is widely distributed across all kingdoms of ...

Laccase belongs to the blue multicopper oxidases and participates in cross-linking of monomers, degradation of polymers, and ring cleavage of aromatic compounds. It is widely distributed in higher plants and fungi. It is present in Ascomycetes, ...

Laccases (benzenediol: oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.10.3.2) are multi-copper enzymes which catalyze the oxidation of a wide range of phenolic and non-phenolic aromatic compounds in the presence or absence of a mediator. Till date, laccases have mostly been isolated from fungi and plants, whereas laccase from bacteria has not been well studied.

Laccase is a copper-containing enzyme under the polyphenol oxidases group, which is able to oxidize a range of organic and inorganic substances.

A very wide variety of bioremediation processes employ laccase in order to protect the environment from damage caused by industrial effluents. Research in recent years has been intense, much of it elicited by the wide diversity of laccases, their utility and …

2024年10月22日 · Laccase, a multipurpose biocatalyst, is widely distributed across all kingdoms of life and plays a key role in essential biological processes such as lignin synthesis, degradation, and pigment formation.
