  • Title: Cloning and characterization of a lignin peroxidase gene from the white-rot fungus Trametes versicolor.
    Author: Black AK, Reddy CA.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1991 Aug 30; 179(1):428-35. PubMed ID: 1883369.
    Abstract:
    Six putative lignin peroxidase (LIP) genes were isolated from a lambda EMBL3 phage library of the white-rot fungus, Trametes versicolor, using the Phanerochaete chrysosporium LIP cDNA CLG5 as the probe. Sequence analysis of one of the genes, VLG1, showed that its coding region is interrupted by six small introns (49-64 bp) and that it encodes a mature LIP protein (341 aa; Mr: 36,714) that is preceded by a 25 aa signal sequence. This protein has a relatively high degree of aa homology to the N-termini of the LIP proteins purified from T. versicolor and has an aa homology of 55-60% to the LIP proteins of P. chrysosporium, which is comparable to that found between P. chrysosporium and Phlebia radiata LIP proteins.
