“…The authors also demonstrated the importance of including 1% glucose, a laccase mediator such as 1-hydroxybenzotriazole and Remazol brilliant blue R (RBBR), which is a laccase inducer, to the degradation of the dyes. Yu et al ( 2023 ) isolated a strain of A. tabacinus from a soil sample that could employ the dye Acid Red 73 (AR73) as the sole carbon and nitrogen source for anaerobic growth, employing an unusual ‘self-redox’ mechanism in which the carbon of the substrate was oxidised to CO 2 and the nitrogen reduced to ammonia. Furthermore, the authors identified an oxygen-sensitive hydrolase (Ord 95) that degraded AR73 and detected the compounds 2-hydroxynaphthalene and N -phenylnitrous amide by LC–MS.…”

Fungi have been extensively studied for their capacity to biotransform a wide range of natural and xenobiotic compounds. This versatility is a reflection of the broad substrate specificity of fungal enzymes such as laccases, peroxidases and cytochromes P450, which are involved in these reactions. This review gives an account of recent advances in the understanding of fungal metabolism of drugs and pollutants such as dyes, agrochemicals and per- and poly-fluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS), and describes the key enzymes involved in xenobiotic biotransformation. The potential of fungi and their enzymes in the bioremediation of polluted environments and in the biocatalytic production of important compounds is also discussed.
