Abstract
S Balachandra Dass C Adinarayana Reddy Characterization of extracellular peroxidases produced by acetatebuffered cultures of the lignindegrading basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium FEMS Microbiology Letters Volume 69 Issue 3 June 1990 Pages 221–224 https//doiorg/101111/j157469681990tb04233xGrowth of Phanerochaete chrysosporium in a nitrogenlimited medium buffered with sodium acetate instead of the commonly used 22dimethylsuccinate DMS resulted in quantitative and qualitative differences in the production of various extracellular lignin peroxidases LIPs and manganesedependent peroxidases MNPs involved in lignin degration The results indicate that production of LIPs and MNPs can be selectively enhanced by manipulation of culture conditions Partial Nterminal analyses of the major LIPs and MNPs have made it possible to assign a specific protein to the specific genes and cDNAs that have been reported recently The LIPs and MNPs differed widely in their ability to decolorize various dyes that are known to be degraded by the lignin degrading enzyme system of P chrysosporium
