Purification of recombinant laccase from Trametes versicolor in Pichia methanolica and its use for the decolorization of anthraquinone dye

Abstract: A recombinant laccase from Trametes versicolor in Pichia methanolica was produced constitutively in a defined medium. The recombinant laccase was purified using ultrafiltration, anion-exchange chromatography, and gel filtration. The molecular weight of the purified laccase was estimated as 64 kDa by SDS-PAGE. The purified recombinant laccase decolorized more than 90% of Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) initially at 80 mg l(-1) after 16 h at 45 degrees C and pH 5 when 25 U laccase ml(-1) was used. The purified r… Show more

“…These results are in agreement with previously reported purified fungal laccases, which showed extremely high activity in the decolorization of anthraquinone-like dyes [38,39], but reduced activity against azo-like dyes [40]. This finding may be attributed to the different structural features of the dyes, i.e., unlike azo dyes, anthraquinone dyes are direct substrates of laccase-based oxidation.…”

“…Of particular interest, SMC decolorized the diazo-like dye Congo red without any mediator, even though this dye is not a common substrate for the laccase catalytic reaction [6]. These results are in agreement with those previously reported on purified fungal laccases, which showed extremely high activity in decolorizing anthraquinone-like dyes [19] but reduced activity against azo-like dyes [20]. Before measurements, the full wavelength absorption spectra (from 400 nm to 800 nm) of the dyes were recorded, which gave the maximal spectral peak at 595 nm for RBBR (Fig.…”

“…Bioaccumulation has also been applied to the decontamination of pollutants, by using microorganisms such as bacteria, algae, yeast, and fungi (Guo et al, 2008;Gonzalez and Fuentes, 2009;Kotrba et al, 2011). The most important advantage of microorganisms is their selectivity in the uptake of pollutants.…”
