The transformation of PAHs by fungal laccases has been reported but there are no published studies on the direct application of free laccase in the remediation of PAHs-contaminated soil. Here we report a study in which the transformation of PAHs by a fungal laccase was studied both in reaction mixtures and in soil. Anthracene and benzo(a)pyrene were the most degradable of the 15 US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) priority PAHs tested. Use of a redox mediator greatly enhanced the oxidation of several PAHs in reaction mixtures and the main intermediates were identified as anthraquinone for anthracene and benzo(a)pyrenyl acetate for benzo(a)pyrene as determined by GC–MS analysis. No significant correlation was found between oxidation and ionization potentials of individual PAHs. Soil microcosms were set up to test the potential of laccase to remediate an aged PAHs-contaminated soil. The laccase transformed the PAHs immediately after it was added to the soil and significant dissimilation of benzo(a)pyrene and toxic-equivalent concentration based on benzo(a)pyrene was observed after incubation for 14 days, indicating the potential of laccase to detoxify the soil. Moreover, extractable laccase activity was completely lost and the biomass of the indigenous microorganisms remained constant in the microcosms at the end of the incubation period, suggesting that the enzyme may have potential as an agent for the efficient and safe cleanup of soil contaminated with PAHs.  相似文献

The transformation profiles of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) by pure laccases from Trametes versicolor and Pycnoporus sanguineus, and the optimal reaction conditions (acetonitrile concentration, pH, temperature and incubation time) were determined. Anthracene was the most transformable PAH by both laccases, followed by benzo[a]pyrene, and benzo[a]anthracene. Laccase-mediator system (LMS) could not only improve the PAH oxidation but also extend the substrate types compared to laccase alone. 5e/0 or 10~ (v/v) of acetonitrile concentration, pH 4, temperature of 40 ~C, and incubation time of 24 h were most favorable for anthracene oxidation by laccase from T. versicolor or P. sanguineus. The gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis indicated that 9,10- anthraquinone was the main product of anthracene transformed by laccase from T. versicolor. Microtox test results showed that both anthracene and its laccase-transformation products were not acute toxic compounds, suggesting that laccase-treatment of anthracene would not increase the acute toxicity of contaminated site.  相似文献

Lichens form the dominant plant cover in extreme environments and participate in mineral weathering, fine-earth stabilization and primary accumulation of soil organic matter. However, biochemical role of lichens in soil processes has never been investigated. Recently, laccases and tyrosinases have been discovered in representatives of the order Peltigerales (Laufer et al., 2006a, b; Zavarzina and Zavarzin, 2006). Laccases from most species had unusually large molecular weights (Laufer et al., 2009). Together with oligomeric laccases, we have found monomeric enzymes in Solorina crocea and Peltigera aphthosa (Lisov et al., 2007). In the present work we have purified homodimeric (large) and monomeric (small) laccases of the soil-stabilizing lichen S. crocea, determined their physico-chemical and catalytic properties and studied their reactions with soil humic acids. Our results suggest that oligomeric nature of lichen laccases can be artifactual, because homodimeric laccase was transformed into the monomeric form following hydrophobic interaction chromatography. We hypothesize that large laccase consists of two monomeric enzymes, each of which is bound with additional hydrophobic component(s). Small laccase is similar in its properties to the laccases of basidiomycetes. It is more resistant to elevated temperature and storage than the large form, showed a higher oxidation potential, had different pH-optima in oxidizing substrates and was less inhibited by humic acids. Despite these differences, both laccases depolymerized and decolorized humic acids from soils at comparable rates, with small laccase being slightly more effective. This finding suggests that lichens have a potential to participate in transformation of soil organic matter.  相似文献

Laccases from Trametes versicolor (TvL), Myceliophthora thermophila (MtL), and Rhus vernicifera (RvL) were investigated with regard to their potential utilization as oxygen scavengers in active packages containing food susceptible to oxidation reactions. The substrate selectivity of the laccases was investigated with a set of 17 reducing substrates, mainly phenolic compounds. The temperature dependence of reactions performed at low temperatures (4-31 °C) was studied. Furthermore, the laccases were subjected to immobilization in a latex/clay matrix and drying procedures performed at temperatures up to 105 °C. The results show that it is possible to immobilize the laccases with retained activity after dispersion coating, drying at 75-105 °C, and subsequent storage of the enzyme-containing films at 4 °C. TvL and, to some extent, MtL were promiscuous with regard to their reducing substrate, in the sense that the difference in activity with the 17 substrates tested was relatively small. RvL, on the other hand, showed high selectivity, primarily toward substrates resembling its natural substrate urushiol. When tested at 7 °C, all three laccases retained >20% of the activity they had at 25 °C, which suggests that it would be possible to utilize the laccases also in refrigerated food packages. Coating and drying resulted in a remaining enzymatic activity ranging from 18 to 53%, depending on the drying conditions used. The results indicate that laccases are useful for active-packaging applications and that the selectivity for reducing substrates is an important characteristic of laccases from different sources.  相似文献

The accumulation of phenolic acids in soil is one of the main problems associated with continuous cropping of peanut. Although laccases secreted by fungi can efficiently transform phenolic acids, there are few reports on the use of these enzymes to bioremediate continuous cropping soil. Food waste and wheat straw are waste products; however, they could be used productively as resources for laccase production by the endophytic fungus Phomopsis liquidambari B3. We cultured Phomopsis liquidambari B3 in medium containing food waste as the main nitrogen source and wheat straw as the main carbon source. In order to study the effects of fermentation liquid on phenolic acid degradation, rhizosphere soil microbial communities and peanut seedling growth, the fermentation product, which had high laccase activity, was added to continuously cropped soil of peanut. The concentration of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, vanillic acid, and coumaric acid in soil had decreased by 57.4, 52.5, and 49.4%, respectively, compared with no-treatment control during 28 days. Analysis of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis profiles showed that the bacterial and fungal community structures in rhizosphere soil were affected by changes in the phenolic acids concentration. The biomass of peanut plants and the number of root nodules were increased 68.3% and 5.9-fold, respectively. These results showed that the laccase product reduced the accumulation of phenolic acids in soil, the decrease in phenolic acids concentration and the increase in certain dominant microorganisms promoted peanut seedling growth and nodulation. This technology provides a new strategy for bioremediation of continuous cropping soil, while simultaneously reducing waste and protecting the environment.  相似文献

Laccases of fungal origin have been intensively studied due to their importance in various biotechnological applications. There is a constant demand for new laccases with improved properties such as stability at higher temperatures or at an alkaline pH. Growing molecular evidence suggests that laccases may also be widespread in bacteria. While only a handful of bacterial laccases have been purified and characterized, several novel traits have already been discovered (e.g. pH-stability and 2-domain organization of the enzyme as opposed to the usual 3-domain structure of fungal laccases). The aim of this study was to examine the diversity of bacterial laccase-like genes in two types of high-organic peat soil using a cloning and sequencing approach. Gene libraries prepared of small fragments (150 base pairs) revealed an amazing diversity of bacterial laccases. The fragments clustered in 11 major lineages, and one third of the 241 sequences resembled laccase-like genes of Acidobacteria. Additionally, a new primer was used to retrieve several larger fragments of the putative bacterial laccase genes that spanned all four copper-binding sites. Both “conventional” 3-domain laccases and the recently described 2-domain small laccases have been obtained using this approach, demonstrating the potential of the primer. The present study thus contributes to the understanding of the diversity of bacterial laccases and provides a new tool for finding laccase-like sequences in bacterial strains and soil samples.  相似文献

The efficiency of Trametes versicolor laccase in the transformation of phenols (caffeic acid, catechol, hydroxytyrosol, methylcatechol, protocatechuic acid, syringic acid, m-tyrosol, 3-hydroxybenzoic acid, 3-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde) usually present in waste water, such as that derived from an olive oil factory, was investigated. According to their response to 24 h laccase action the 11 phenolic compounds were classified in three groups: reactive (88-100% transformation), intermediate reactive (transformation lower than 50%), and recalcitrant (not transformed at all). The enzyme was able to transform the 11 substrates even when they were present in a mixture and also toward a phenolic extract from a Moroccan olive oil mill waste water (OMW) sample. The disappearance of protocatechuic, 3-hydroxyphenylacetic, and 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acids, and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde was enhanced whereas that of caffeic acid and m-tyrosol was depressed when the phenols were present in the mixture. A reduction of enzyme activity occurred in single and/or complex phenolic mixtures after enzymatic oxidation. No correspondence between phenol transformation and disappearance of enzymatic activity was, however, observed. The overall results suggest that laccases are effective in the transformation of simple and complex phenolic mixtures.  相似文献

The dynamics of leaf litter decomposition of Quercus ilex (L.) were investigated over a 2 year period by determining the activities and isoenzyme distribution of laccases and peroxidases. The analysis of isoenzymes was performed by isoelectric focusing on high stability pH gradients with high resolving power. The preparation of zymograms was carried out using the leaf litter extract without previous concentration. During litter decomposition, laccase and peroxidase activities changed as well as the type and number of enzyme isoforms. The activities of both enzymes were low (≤0.017 and ≤0.031 mmol o-tolidine oxidized h−1 g−1 d.w. for laccase and peroxidase, respectively) in first year and increased in October-January of the second year of litter decay. The highest activities measured after 15-18 months of litter exposure (0.37±0.03 and 0.19±0.02 mmol o-tolidine oxidized h−1 g−1 d.w. for laccase and peroxidase, respectively), showed that litter chemical composition affected the growth of ligninolytic microbial community. The activation energy for laccase and peroxidase reactions also changed during decomposition: the highest values (55±6 kJ mol−1 for laccase and 60±6 kJ mol−1 for peroxidase) occurred in autumn-winter, even if spatial changes were evidenced. Some enzyme isoforms (pI=5.3 and 5.5 for laccase and pI=5.0 and 5.1 for peroxidase, respectively), contributed more than others to the overall laccase and peroxidase activity, suggesting that some ligninolytic species bloomed in particular seasons of the year, even if other species with similar functional activities colonized the litter.  相似文献

Hydroxyphenylureas are the first main metabolites formed in the environment from pesticide and biocide urea compounds. Because fungi release potent exocellular oxidases, we studied the ability of laccases produced by the white rot fungus, T. versicolor, to catalyze in vitro the transformation of five hydroxyphenylureas, to identify transformation pathways and mechanisms. Our results establish that the pH of the reaction has a strong influence on both the kinetics of the reaction and the nature of the transformation products. Structural characterization by spectroscopic methods (NMR, mass spectrometry) of eleven transformation products shows that laccase oxidizes the substrates to quinones or to polyaromatic oligomers. Slightly acidic conditions favor the formation of quinones as final transformation products. In contrast, at pH 5-6, the quinones further react with the remaining substrate in solution to give hetero-oligomers via carbon-carbon or carbon-oxygen bond formation. A reaction pathway is proposed for each of the identified products. These results demonstrate that fungal laccases could assist the transformation of hydroxyphenylureas.  相似文献

Fungal oxidative exo-enzymes lacking substrate specificity play a central role in the cycling of soil organic matter. Due to their broad ecological impact and available knowledge of their gene structure, laccases appeared to be appropriate markers to monitor fungi with this kind of oxidative potential in soils. A degenerate PCR-primer pair Cu1F/Cu2R, specific for basidiomycetes, was designed to assess directly the diversity of laccase genes in soils. PCR amplification of mycelial cultures and fruit-bodies of a wide spectrum of basidiomycetes, covering all functional groups (saprophytes, symbionts, and pathogens), produced multiple DNA fragments around 200 bp. A neighbor-joining tree analysis of the PCR-amplified laccase sequences showed a clear species-specificity, but also revealed that most fungal taxa possess several laccase genes showing a large sequence divergence. This sequence diversity precluded the systematic attribution of amplified laccase of unknown origin to specific taxa. Amplification of laccase sequences from DNA, extracted from a brown (moder) forest soil, showed a specific distribution of laccase genes and of the corresponding fungal species in the various soil horizons (Oh, Ah, Bv). The most organic Oh-horizon displayed the highest gene diversity. Saprophytic fungi appeared to be less widespread through the soil horizons and displayed a higher diversity of laccase genes than the mycorrhizal ones.  相似文献

Soil laccase was extracted with 0. 1 m sodium pyrophosphate and purified by Sephadex G-25 gel chromatography. Oxygen consumption during the enzymatic reaction was determined by a polarographic method with catechol or p-phenylenediamine as the substrates. The fraction showed laccase activity toward both the substrates. The activity toward p-phenylenediamine was six times higher than that toward catechol. The properties of soil laccase suggest that the enzyme is associated with humic compounds and forms a humus-laccase complex (Ruggiero and Radogna, 1984). The effect of three phenoxyacetic and three s-triazine herbicides on the activity of the humus-laccase complex was assessed. All the herbicides inhibited laccase activity to varying degrees. The inhibition of humus-laccase activity by 2,4-D was investigated in detail. The data, plotted in the form of a Lineweaver-Burk plot, showed that the 2,4-D acted as a non-competitive inhibitor. The apparent Km values were 28.7 and 6.0 nm for catechol and p-phenylenediamine, respectively. Some aspects of the relationship between herbicide, substrate and humus-laccase complex are discussed.  相似文献

Because investigations had established the difficulty of isolating a laccase from native soil, experiments were made to overcome this problem. An extracellular laccase which had been isolated from the growth medium of the fungus Trametes versicolor was introduced into the soil. After a short incubation, approximately 80% of this activity could be recovered with water, aconitate or phosphate buffers as extradants. The enzyme could also be extracted from soils which had been inoculated with various laccase-producing fungi; maximum laccase formation was usually observed after about 30 days. Attempts were made to extract laccase activity from native soil with 10 different buffers, but only those buffers containing citrate ions yielded a positive result. It is unlikely that this activity is due to an enzyme, since it has been demonstrated that citrate ions and manganese form complexes which exhibit laccase-like activity. However, when soil was mixed with sand and placed inside a column, it was possible to elute laccase-like activity with several non-citrate buffers containing laccase substrates. This activity was found only in the eluents of fresh soils, but not in those of air-dried or autoclaved soils.  相似文献

The effects of Trametes hirsuta laccase and Pentopan Mono BG xylanase and their combination on oat, wheat, and mixed oat-wheat doughs and the corresponding breads were investigated. Laccase treatment decreased the content of water-extractable arabinoxylan (WEAX) in oat dough due to oxidative cross-linking of feruloylated arabinoxylans. Laccase treatment also increased the proportion of water-soluble polysaccharides (WSNSP) apparently due to the beta-glucanase side activity present in the laccase preparation. As a result of the laccase treatment, the firmness of fresh oat bread was increased. Xylanase treatment doubled the content of WEAX in oat dough and slightly increased the amount of WSNSP. Increased stiffness of the dough and firmness of the fresh bread were detected, probably because of the increased WEAX content, which decreased the amount of water available for beta-glucan. The combination of laccase and xylanase produced slight hydrolysis of beta-glucan by the beta-glucanase side activity of laccase and enhanced the availability of AX for xylanase with concomitant reduction of the amount and molar mass of WSNSP. Subsequently, the volume of oat bread was increased. Laccase treatment tightened wheat dough, probably due to cross-linking of WEAX to higher molecular weight. In oat-wheat dough, laccase slightly increased the proportion of WSNSP between medium to low molecular weight and increased the specific volume of the bread. Xylanase increased the contents of WEAX and WSNSP between medium to low molecular weight in oat-wheat dough, which increased the softness of the dough, as well as the specific volume and softness of the bread. The results thus indicate that a combination of laccase and xylanase was beneficial for the textures of both oat and oat-wheat breads.  相似文献

The potential of brewer's spent grain (BSG), a common waste from the brewing industry, as a support-substrate for laccase production by the well-known laccase producer Trametes versicolor ATCC 20869 under solid-state fermentation conditions was assessed. An attempt was made to improve the laccase production by T. versicolor through supplementing the cultures with inducers, such as 2,2-azino bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid), copper sulfate, ethanol, gallic acid, veratryl alcohol, and phenol. A higher laccase activity of 13506.2 ± 138.2 IU/gds (gram dry substrate) was obtained with a phenol concentration of 10 mg/kg substrate in a tray bioreactor after 12 days of incubation time. The flocculation properties of the laccase treated crude beer samples have been studied by using various parameters, such as viscosity, turbidity, ζ potential, total polyphenols, and total protein content. The present results indicated that laccase (25 IU/L) showed promising results as a good flocculating agent. The laccase treatment showed better flocculation capacity compared to the industrial flocculation process using stabifix as a flocculant. The laccase treatments (25 IU/L) at 4 ± 1 °C and room temperature have shown almost similar flocculation properties without much variability. The study demonstrated the potential of in-house produced laccase using brewer's spent grain for the clarification and flocculation of crude beer as a sustainable alternative to traditional flocculants, such as stabifix and bentonite.  相似文献

Elucidating the mechanism of laccase and tyrosinase in wheat bread making   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Cross-linking enzymes generate covalent bonds in and between food biopolymers. These enzymes are interesting tools for tailoring dough and bread structures, as the characteristics of the biopolymers significantly determine the viscoelastic and fracture properties of dough and bread. In this study, the influence of oxidative cross-linking enzymes, tyrosinase from the filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei and laccase from the white rot fungus Trametes hirsuta, on dough and bread were examined. Oxidation of low molecular weight phenolic model compounds of flour, cross-linking of gluten proteins, dough rheology, and bread making were characterized during or after the enzymatic treatments. In the dough and bread experiments, laccase and tyrosinase were also studied in combination with xylanase. Of the model compounds tyrosine, p-coumaric acid, caffeic acid, ferulic acid, and Gly-Leu-Tyr tripeptide, tyrosinase oxidized all except ferulic acid. Laccase was able to oxidize each of the studied compounds. The phenolic acids were notably better substrates for laccase than l-tyrosine. When the ability of the enzymes to cross-link isolated gliadin and glutenin proteins was studied by the SDS-PAGE analysis, tyrosinase was found to cross-link the gliadin proteins effectively, whereas polymerization of the gliadins by laccase was observed only when a high enzyme dosage and prolonged incubation were used. Examination of large deformation rheology of dough showed that both laccase and tyrosinase made doughs harder and less extensible, and the effects increased as a function of the enzyme dosage. In bread making, interestingly, the pore size of the breads baked with tyrosinase turned out to be remarkably larger and more irregular when compared to that of the other breads. Nevertheless, both of the oxidative enzymes were found to soften the bread crumb and increase the volume of breads, and the best results were achieved in combination with xylanase.  相似文献

The effect of available nitrogen N ((NH4)2S04) amendments on various microbial variables in three different layers (OhLn, OhLv, OhLf) of a Mediterranean litter profile under an evergreen oak forest (Quercus ilex L.) were studied. Since Mediterranean litters are generally N limiting, the goal of the study was to understand how low (0.1 and 1%) and high (5 and 10%) N amendments impact specific biological variables such as hyphal length, community-level-catabolic-profiles (CLCPs) in ECO and FF Biolog? plates, basal respiration, enzymatic activities (i.e. alkaline phosphatases (AlP), laccases, peroxidases and cellulases), and laccase and cellulase isoforms from three different litter layers. Results indicated that the effects of N amendments occurred over very short incubation time (3 d), and varied depending on N concentration and litter organic matter (OM) quality (i.e. depth). Thus, it appeared that the more active layer was the intermediate (OhLv) layer, which probably contained the most labile and available C pools. As a consequence, OhLv was also the layer showing globally the more intensive microbial responses following low N amendments. Indeed, in this layer, low N supplies caused several marked increases in enzymes activities (i.e. laccases, cellulases and alkaline phosphatases), hyphal length and isoenzyme patterns, suggesting a microbial reallocation of C to biomass and enzyme production. On the contrary, high N supplies resulted in adverse effects on almost all the variables, suggesting repression or cytotoxic phenomena.  相似文献
