Montiel AM, Fernandez FJ, Marcial J, Soriano J, Barrios-Gonzalez J, Tomasini A: A fungal phenoloxidase (tyrosinase) involved in pentachlorophenol degradation. Biotechnol Lett. 2004 Sep;26(17):1353-7.
Amylomyces rouxii eliminated 85% of initial pentachlorophenol (PCP) at 12.5 mg l (-1) when grown with 0.1 g tyrosine l (-1), but only 55% without tyrosine. Addition of tyrosine in the culture medium increased the monophenolase activity by 1.8-fold. Tyrosinase is thus indicated to be the phenoloxidase involved in PCP degradation by A. rouxii . |
