Metabolism of cyanide by Phanerochaete chrysosporium

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1991
The oxidation of veratryl alcohol (3,4-dimethoxybenzyl alcohol) by lignin peroxidase H2 (LiP H2) from the white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium was strongly inhibited by sodium cyanide. The I50 was estimated to be about 2-3 microM. In contrast, sodium cyanide binds to the native enzyme with an apparent sodium cyanide dissociation constant Kd of ...

Metabolism of 4,4′-dichlorobiphenyl by white-rot fungi Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Phanerochaete sp. MZ142

Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2006
Degradation experiment of model polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) compound 4,4'-dichlorobiphenyl (4,4'-DCB) and its metabolites by the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium and newly isolated 4,4'-DCB-degrading white-rot fungus strain MZ142 was carried out. Although P.

Glucose oxidase of Phanerochaete chrysosporium

1988
Publisher Summary Glucose oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of D-glucose to δ-D-gluconolactone and H 2 O 2 in the presence of molecular oxygen. In a subsequent step δ -D-gluconolactone is nonenzymatically hydrolyzed to D-gluconic acid. This enzyme has been demonstrated in various Aspergillus and Penicillium species and has recently been purified ...

Lignin-Degrading Peroxidases from Phanerochaete chrysosporium

Journal of Biotechnology, 1990
Lignin and manganese peroxidases are secreted by the basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium during secondary metabolism. These enzymes play major roles in lignin degradation. The active site amino acid sequence of these lignin-degrading peroxidases is similar to that of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and cytochrome c peroxidase (CcP). The mechanism by

Two glucuronoyl esterases of Phanerochaete chrysosporium

Archives of Microbiology, 2008
The white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium produces glucuronoyl esterase, a recently discovered carbohydrate esterase, during growth on sugar beet pulp. Two putative genes encoding this enzyme, ge1 and ge2, were isolated and cloned. Heterologous expression in Aspergillus vadensis, Pycnoporus cinnabarinus and Schizophyllum commune resulted in ...

Metabolism and Detoxification of TNT by Phanerochaete chrysosporium

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1993
Several lines of evidence suggest that TNT detoxification by Phanerochaete chrysosporium is through reduction. Rates of TNT reduction were directly correlated with mycelial mass and TNT concentration. Toxicity was inversely related to the amount of fungus. TNT toxicity was identical in both ligninolytic and nonligninolytic cultures. Rapid disappearance

Biocatalytic decolourisation of molasses by Phanerochaete chrysosporium

Bioresource Technology, 2006
Bioremediation potential of Phanerochaete chrysosporium strains NCIM 1073, NCIM 1106 and NCIM 1197 to decolourise molasses in solid and liquid molasses media was studied. Strains varied in the pattern of molasses decolourisation on solid medium by Giant colony method. Under submerged cultivation conditions, strain NCIM 1073 did not decolourise molasses

Phanerochaete flava in Puerto Rico

Mycologia, 1998
A b s t r a c t : Phan e r o c h a e t e f l a v a i s a consp i cuous , bright yellow, resupinate, wood-inhabiting basidiomycete encountered in the subtropical wet and subtropical moist forest life zones in Puerto Rico. Characterized by abundant, white to yellow hyphal cords with numerous hyaline crystals, this species appears to be involved in the ...
