Species of the genus Trametes represent one of the most efficient lignin-degraders which can be attributed to a well developed ligninolytic enzyme system. Current trends are screening of ability of new species to produce these enzymes, as well as the optimization of conditions for their overproduction. Therefore, the aim of the study was to evaluate the potential of T. suaveolens to synthesize laccase and Mn-oxidizing peroxidases during fermentation of the selected plant raw materials. Level of enzyme activities was measured on 7, 10 and 14th day of submersion, as well as the solid-state fermentation of wheat straw and oak sawdust in the presence of NH4NO3 in previously determined optimal nitrogen concentration of 25 mM. The enzyme activity was determined spectrophotometrically using ABTS and phenol red as the substrates. The highest level of laccase activity (1087.1 U/L) was noted after 7 days of wheat straw solid-state fermentation, while during the submerged cultivation the production of the enzyme was not noted. Submerged cultivation in oak sawdust-enriched medium was the optimal for activity of Mn-dependent peroxidase (1767.7 U/L on day 14) and Mn-independent peroxidase (1113.7 U/L on day 7). Introduction of T. suaveolens to produce ligninolytic enzyme represented the base for further study, as well as the determination of relation between enzyme activity and rate of lignin degradation. It could lead to greater possibility of fungal species selection with high delignification capacity, which could take participation in sustainable production of food, feed, fibres, and energy, environmentally friendly pollution prevention, and bioremediation.

Ligninolytic enzymes are known as extracellular enzymes produced by the white rot fungi class of basidiomycetes. One of the most well-known fungi of the white rot fungus isPleurotus ostreatus. The aim of this study to calculate the activity of ligninolytic enzymes in the growth media of Pleurotus ostreatusand their application in decolorization of dye colour. The ligninolytic enzyme extract obtained was used to decolorize bluedyes (MethyleneBlue)and red dyes(Congo Red). The highest laccase enzyme activity was in the first month of 0.35 U/mL with E1 media composition; the highest manganese peroxidase (MnP) enzyme activity was in the fourth month at 31.818 U / mL with E4 media composition; and the highest lignin peroxidase (LiP) enzyme activity was in the fifth month at 0.269 U / mL with E1 media composition. The enzyme extract obtained was then applied to decolorize red and blue dyes. Decolorization of dyes was measured using spectrophotometry with a blue wavelength of 470 nm and red 685 nm. The highest reduction in decolorization of blue dye and red dye was 12 hours with concentration of enzyme addition of 0.5%. Based on these results, ligninolytic enzymes potentiallyto be developed as bioactive agents for detergents.[Keywords: decolorization, laccase, mangan peroxidase, lignin peroxidase, spectrofotometry] AbstrakEnzim ligninolitik dikenal sebagai enzim ekstraseluler yang dihasilkan oleh jamur pelapuk putih golongan basidiomycetes.

AbstractPoly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) depolymerase can decompose biodegradable polymers and therefore has great commercial significance in the bioplastic sector. However, few reports have described PHB depolymerases based on isolates obtained from plastic-contaminated sites that reflect the potential of the source organism. In this study, we evaluated Microbacterium paraoxydans RZS6 as a producer of extracellular PHB depolymerase isolated from a plastic-contaminated site in the municipal area of Shahada, Maharashtra, India, for the first time. The isolate was identified using the polyphasic approach, i.e., 16S rRNA gene sequencing, gas chromatographic analysis of fatty acid methyl esters, and BIOLOG identification, and was found to hydrolyze PHB on minimal salt medium containing PHB as the only source of carbon. Both isolates produced PHB depolymerase at 30°C within 2 days and at 45°C within 4 days. The enzyme was purified most efficiently using an octyl-sepharose CL-4B column, with the highest purification yield of 6.675 U/mg/mL. The enzyme required Ce2+ and Mg2+ ions but was inhibited by Fe2+ ions and mercaptoethanol. Moreover, enzyme kinetic analysis revealed that the enzyme was a metalloenzyme requiring Mg2+ ions, with optimum enzyme activity at 45°C (thermophilic) and under neutrophilic conditions (optimum pH = 7). The presence of Fe2+ ions (1 mM) and mercaptoethanol (1000 ppm) completely inhibited the enzyme activity. The molecular weight of the enzyme (40 kDa), as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, closely resembled that of PHB depolymerase from Aureobacterium saperdae. Scale-up from the shake-flask level to a laboratory-scale bioreactor further enhanced the enzyme yield. Our findings highlighted the applicability of M. paraoxydans as a producer of extracellular PHB depolymerase isolated from a plastic-contaminated site in the municipal area of Shahada, Maharashtra, India.
