Lignin degradation by peroxidase in organic media: A reassessment.

چکیده
The effect of horseradish peroxidase/H(2)O(2) in organic medium (dioxane/aqueous buffer, pH 5, 95:5) on the depolymerization of synthetic (dehydrogenatively polymerized) lignin was reinvestigated. In contrast to previous claims [Dordick, J. S., Marletta, M. A. & Klibanov, A. M. (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83, 6255-6257], our results demonstrated that vigorous depolymerization of this substrate did not occur. Further, during this treatment ferulic acid was not a significant biodegradation product.

Degradation of Phenol Derivatives by a Phanerochaete Chrysosporium Strain
The white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium has significant pollutant-degrading capabilities with its oxidoreductases. The lignin-degrading enzyme system of this fungus also allows the breakdown of different organic pollutants (xenobiotics). The most significant enzymes in these processes are the lignin peroxidase and the manganese peroxidase. In this study, Phanerochaete chrysosporium str...
متن کاملEnzymatic Degradation of Lignin in Soil: A Review
Lignin is a major component of soil organic matter and also a rich source of carbon dioxide in soils. However, because of its complex structure and recalcitrant nature, lignin degradation is a major challenge. Efforts have been made from time to time to understand the lignin polymeric structure better and develop simpler, economical, and bio-friendly methods of degradation. Certain enzymes from...
متن کاملRoles of manganese and organic acid chelators in regulating lignin degradation and biosynthesis of peroxidases by Phanerochaete chrysosporium.
We studied the effect of manganese and various organic chelators on the distribution, depolymerization, and mineralization of synthetic 14C-labeled lignins (DHP) in cultures of Phanerochaete chrysosporium. In the presence of high levels of manganese [Mn(II) or Mn(III)], along with a suitable chelator, lignin peroxidase (LiP) production was repressed and manganese peroxidase (MnP) production was...

In this study the biodegradative activity of Pleurotus ostreatus was tested against a natural waste (Coir) along with a synthetic polymer waste (Nylon 6). Lignin modifying enzymes such as laccase, lignin peroxidase and manganese peroxidase activity were tested for coir and nylon 6 degradation in solid substrate fermentation. Enumeration of degradation with loss of weight, lignin degradation ass...
متن کاملLignocellulose Degradation during Solid-State Fermentation: Pleurotus ostreatus versus Phanerochaete chrysosporium.
Lignocellulose degradation and activities related to lignin degradation were studied in the solid-state fermentation of cotton stalks by comparing two white rot fungi, Pleurotus ostreatus and Phanerochaete chrysosporium. P. chrysosporium grew vigorously, resulting in rapid, nonselective degradation of 55% of the organic components of the cotton stalks within 15 days. In contrast, P. ostreatus g...
