Description |
Pleurotus florida (ITCC 3308) produces two laccase enzymes (L 1 and L2) in potato-dextrose media containing 0.5 % yeast extract. Concentrated culture filtrate was separated on DEAE-Sephadex (A-50) column into two enzyme peaks, subsequently named L I and L 2. The L 1 enzyme has been purified to homogeneity by ion-exchange and gel-permeation chromatography L 1 is a monomeric glycoprotein with a molar mass of 77 and 82 kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE and gelfiltration chromatography, respectively. The pl value of L 1 has been determined to be 4.1. The optimum reaction temperature of the enzyme is 50 ~ The K m and some other kinetic parameters of L 1 have been determined. Cyanide and azide completely inhibit the enzyme activity. The enzyme was fully active in 1 : 1 (V/V) buffer-chloroform for at least 2 h. Spectroscopic analysis revealed that the enzyme has four copper atoms, a type 1 copper, a type 2 copper and a type 3 binuclear copper. |
