Journal ArticleDOI
Laccases and their natural mediators: Biotechnological tools for sustainable eco-friendly processes
Ana Isabel Cañas,Susana Camarero +1 more
TL;DR: This work focuses on phenolic compounds related to lignin polymer that promotes the in vitro transformation of recalcitrant non-phenolic structures by laccase and are seemingly the natural mediators of laccases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transformation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons by Laccase Is Strongly Enhanced by Phenolic Compounds Present in Soil
Ana Isabel Cañas,Miguel Alcalde,Francisco J. Plou,María Jesús Martínez,A.T. Martínez,Susana Camarero +5 more
TL;DR: Efficient transformation of several polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) was obtained using a fungal laccase in the presence of phenolic compounds related to those formed in nature during the turnover of lignin and humus using natural mediators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Engineering platforms for directed evolution of Laccase from Pycnoporus cinnabarinus.
Susana Camarero,Isabel Pardo,Ana Isabel Cañas,P. Molina,Eric Record,Ángel T. Martínez,María Jesús Martínez,Miguel Alcalde +7 more
TL;DR: The construction of a PcL fusion gene and the optimization of conditions to induce its functional expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae are described, facilitating its directed evolution and semirational engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
p-Hydroxycinnamic Acids as Natural Mediators for Laccase Oxidation of Recalcitrant Compounds
Susana Camarero,Ana Isabel Cañas,Paula Nousiainen,Eric Record,Anne Lomascolo,María Jesús Martínez,Ángel T. Martínez +6 more
TL;DR: Investigation of TBARS (thiobarbituric acid-reactive-substances) from unsaturated fatty acids revealed that laccase can also initiate lipid peroxidation reactions in the presence of p-hydroxycinnamic acids enabling oxidation of the most recalcitrant PAH.
