“…Although laccase activity is apparently constitutive in most basidiomycetes [1,9], it can be enhanced by several inducers such as aromatic substances [10] or copper [11,12]. Total laccase activity in M. quercophilus C30 culture is increased up to 10-fold when the malt extract medium is amended with copper sulfate and up to 30-fold when both copper and p-hydoxybenzoic acid are used.…”

The white-rot fungus Marasmius quercophilus C30 is able to produce several laccases. The proportion of the enzymes produced depends on culture conditions. On malt medium, LAC1 was produced continuously over the 14 days of the cultivation period and was the only activity detectable. Copper increased total laccase activity by a factor 10 and induced the transient expression of one or more extra laccases in the culture medium. A combination of copper and p-hydroxybenzoic acid made it possible to extend the expression of induced laccase activities over the cultivation period and to reach a maximum activity 30 times higher than in non-induced culture. Extracellular laccases produced in this last condition were eluted as four peaks on an anion exchange column and were partially characterized. ß

Numerous reports have been published on the occurrence, isolation, and characterization of phenolic compounds in plant-soil systems. The low molecular weight phenolics are of great interest because of their effects as allelopathic compounds and plant growth regulators, and they have traditionally been considered as defense molecules in plant-pathogen interactions. More recently, their role as signal molecules in plantmicrobe systems has become evident. Specific molecules can act either as inducers for virulent genes in plantpathogen systems, such as Agrobacterium, or as inducers and "repressors" in Rhizobium-legumc and probably other symbiosis. The overall regulation role of these compounds in compatible and incompatible host-microbe interactions is discussed in this review.

“…Compounds other than phenols have also been reported to stimulate the enzyme production. Eurthermore, the general composition of the culture medium and the culture conditions are of importance for the enzyme production (BAVENDAMM 1928;EYR 1958;FAHRAEUS 1954FAHRAEUS , 1962.…”
