Biochem/physiol Actions

Laccase catalyzes the oxidation of phenol containing compounds, including lignin, through the reduction of oxygen to water. The presence of mediators will allow the oxidation of non-phenlic compounds as well. The primary function of laccase is to degrade lignin in fungi.

Unit Definition

One unit corresponds to the amount of enzyme which converts 1 μmole of catechol per minute at pH 4.5 and 25 °C
