Production of laccase by Pynoporus sanguineus using 2,5 - Xylidine and ethanol

Abstract: Enzyme application in biotechnological and environmental processes has had increasing interest due to its efficiency, selectivity and mainly for being environmentally healthful, but these applications require a great volume of enzymes. In this work the effect of different concentrations of ethanol and 2,5-xylidine on growth and production of laccase by Pycnoporus sanguineus was investigated. In a medium containing 200 mg.L-1 of 2,5-xylidine or 50 g.L-1 of ethanol, the maximum activity of laccase was 2019 U.L-1… Show more

“…Ten 5 mm diameter mycelium discs were inoculated in 50 mL of malt extract broth (Merck, Darmastadt, Germany) plus substrate (4, 19, 28). Cultures were grown in conical flasks (250 ml) with shaking (150 rpm) at 30°C for 7 days (16).…”

“…Dantán-González et al (2008) reported a 68-kDa protein purified from submerged cultures of Pycnoporus sanguineus; this protein showed laccase activity towards 2,2´-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), guaiacol, syringaldazine, and o-dianisidine. Valeriano et al (2009) reported an increase in Pycnoporus sanguineus laccase activity in the presence of xylidine and ethanol as inducers and observed the maximum laccase activity of 2019 U/L and 1035 U/L, with 200 mg/L of 2,5-xylidine and 50 g/L of ethanol, respectively. Laccases from Pycnoporus cinnabarinus are involved in cinnabarinic acid production with antibacterial activity (Eggert 1997).…”

“…A notable decrease in substrate phenols has also been reported for the first stages of growth in Pleurotus sp., concurrent with high Mn peroxidase activity. The activity of Mn peroxidase and laccase enzymes is linked to a response of the mushroom to oxidize chemical compounds and decrease their toxic effects (54, 55). Zheng and Shetty (58) have also mentioned that L. edodes has high levels of extracellular enzymes, such as ß-glucosidases, that are capable of hydrolyzing phenolic compounds.…”
