In this study, hydrolytic and oxidative activities of enzymes isolated from halophilic microbes were characterized and applied for biomass utilization. First, lipase from Micrococcus luteus, and peroxidase and laccase from Pseudoalteromonas phenolica and Pseudoalteromonas peptidolytica were selected and their catalytic

Laccases, as early as 1959, were proposed to catalyze the oxidative polymerization of monolignols. Genetic evidence in support of this hypothesis has been elusive due to functional redundancy of laccase genes. An Arabidopsis double mutant demonstrated the involvement of laccases

Increasing grain yields is a major focus of crop breeders around the world. Here we report that overexpression of the rice microRNA (miRNA) OsmiR397, which is naturally highly expressed in young panicles and grains, enlarges grain size and promotes panicle

Multicopper oxidases can act on a broad spectrum of phenolic and non-phenolic compounds. These enzymes include laccases, which are widely distributed in plants and fungi, and were more recently identified in bacteria. Here, we present the results of biochemical and

Protocols

Enzymatic Assay of Laccase (EC 1.10.3.2)

Laccase (EC 1.10.3.2) is a cuproenzyme that oxidizes various types of phenols and similar aromatic compounds aromatic amines with the reduction of molecular oxygen to water, therefore, is used as a biocatalyst.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
