Laccase
FunctionLaccase (Lac) or multicopper oxidase is a multi-copper protein which uses molecular oxygen to oxidize various aromatic and non-aromatic compounds by a radical-catalyzed reaction mechanism[1]. The multi-copper oxidases constitute a family of enzymes whose principal members are laccase (benzenediol oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.10.3.2), ascorbate oxidase (L-ascorbate oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.10.3.3) and ceruloplasmin (Fe(II) oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.16.3.1).
For laccase with nitrotyrosine modification see Nitrotyrosine. RelevanceLaccase from various fungi is used in adsorption of dyes from polluted environment</ref>[6]. Laccases play an important role in food industry, paper and pulp industry, textile industry, synthetic chemistry, cosmetics, soil bioremediation and biodegradation of phenolic pollutants[7]. Structural highlightsThe trinuclear center of CotA laccase has two type 3 copper ions, that can be anti-ferromagnetically coupled through an hydroxyl moiety in between them, and one type 2 copper ion.‡ The mononuclear copper is able to accept an electron from a variety of phenolic substrates and then transmit it to the trinuclear centre. 3D structures of laccase
