Fungal strain and culture conditions

Stock cultures of Pleurotus sp. (strain ‘MAK-II’) were maintained on the potato dextrose agar

(PDA) slant at 4 °C in the dark. The mycelium from the slant was transferred to PDA plates and incubated at 30 °C for 7 days. Mycelial discs from the peripheral region of actively growing culture were used as inoculum. The production medium contains (g l

, 0.0275 adenine, and 2.0 biotin in 1 l distilled water (pH 5.0). Laccase production was carried out under submerged fermentation in a laboratory scale bioreactor (5 l working volume capacity). Three liters of the production medium were added to the reactor and sterilized for 20 min at 121 °C at 15 psi. The pre-cultures were prepared in 250-ml Erlenmeyer flasks containing nutrient medium with glucose (20 g l

−1 ) in static conditions at 30 °C. Sevendays-old pre-cultures were homogenized before transferring into the medium in the bioreactor

(20 g l

wet mycelium). The agitator and flow rate of filter-sterilized air were set at 100 rpm and

3 l h

, respectively. The internal temperature of the bioreactor was maintained at 30 °C. After 3 days incubation, vanillic acid (1 mM) was added to the production medium as inducer to enhance laccase production.

Laccase gene amplification using degenerative primers from Pleurotus sp. MAK-II

Laccase gene amplification was performed with primers Cu1F: 5′-CAT(C) TGG CAT(C) GGN

TTT(C)TTT(C) CA-3′ and Cu2R: 5′-G G(A)CT GTG GTA CCAGAA NGT NCC-3′ according

to the method of D'Souza et al. (1996).

Triton-X 100), or various solvents (5% v/v; that included acetone, acetonitrile, butanol, dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide, dichloromethane, ethanol, methanol, and isopropanol) were examined on laccase activity by pre-incubating the enzyme in above chemicals (metal ions, inhibitors, surfactants, and solvents ) for 1 h and the remaining enzyme activity was assayed under standard assay condition using 1 mM ABTS as substrate in sodium acetate buffer (100 mM, pH 4.5) at 30 °C. The activity assayed in the absence of any additives (metal ions or inhibitors or surfactants or solvents) was defined as 100%.
