Oxidation of Anthracene and Benzo[a]pyrene by Laccases from Trametes versicolor.
The in vitro oxidation of the two polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons anthracene and benzo[a]pyrene, which have ionization potentials of <=7.45 eV, is catalyzed by laccases from Trametes versicolor. Crude laccase preparations were able to oxidize both anthracene and the potent carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene. Oxidation of benzo[a]pyrene was enhanced by the addition of the cooxidant 2,2(prm1)-azinobis(3-...
متن کاملDegradation of Aflatoxins by Means of Laccases from Trametes versicolor: An In Silico Insight
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites of fungi that contaminate food and feed, and are involved in a series of foodborne illnesses and disorders in humans and animals. The mitigation of mycotoxin content via enzymatic degradation is a strategy to ensure safer food and feed, and to address the forthcoming issues in view of the global trade and sustainability. Nevertheless, the search for active e...
متن کاملOxidation of Endocrine Disrupting Chemical by Trametes versicolor Laccase
There is longstanding environmental concern regarding endocrine disrupting chemicals and wastewater treatment facilities’ inability to remove them. Estrogens in particular, including 17 β-estradiol, 17 α-ethynylestradiol, and bis-phenol A, have been reported to depress cortisol levels and cause development of intersexual gonads in fish, along with various additional disruptions to the endocrine...
متن کاملComparison of two laccases from Trametes versicolor for application in the decolorization of dyes.
It has been previously demonstrated that laccases exhibit great potential for use in several industrial and environmental applications. In this paper, two laccase isoenzyme genes, lccB and lccC, were cloned and expressed in Pichia pastoris GS115. The sequence analysis indicated that the lccB and lccC genes consisted of 1,563 and 1,584 bp, and their open reading frames encoded 520 and 527 amino ...
متن کاملDecolorization of dyes from textile wastewater by Trametes versicolor.
The white rot fungus Trametes versicolor was applied to the decolourisation of three synthetic textile dyes in the presence and absence of glucose. Different initial dye concentrations were tested and approximately 97% decolourisation was achieved. It was found that fungal metabolism induced by the glucose as well as the pH play an important role in the decolourisation process. This treatment w...
