Ligninolytic extracellular enzymes including lignin peroxidase and manganese peroxidase have high redox potential and many biotechnological applications. The prospective applications of lignin peroxidase and manganese peroxidase span through a lot of sectors like textile industry, paper and pulp industry, dermatology, biorefinery and bioremediation. They have wide range of applications due to their versatility in degradation of phenolic and non-phenolic compounds. Over the years, ligninolytic extracellular enzymes have been studied but still research on these peroxidases seems to be lagging behind as compared to other peroxidases. Thereby, a documentation of sources and applications of lignin peroxidases and manganese peroxidases has been given in this review.
