Abstract：
:Production of laccase activity by nine strains of Chalara paradoxa isolated from olive mill wastewater disposal ponds were studied. Enzyme extracts obtained from cultured broths by adsorption on hydroxyapatite showed a single band of laccase activity on ABTS after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). They showed small mobility differences, with molecular masses of 67 to 68 kDa. Enzymes from the different strains oxidized a variety of phenolic and non-phenolic substances, and they could be divided into two groups according to their relative activities on substrates. All laccases showed a dual pH dependence of activity, with a maximum in the range of pH 3.0 to 4.5 for ABTS, o-dianisidine and 2,6-dimethoxyphenol, and pH 6.0 (Group 1) or pH 6.5 (Group 2) for syringaldazine and other substrates. Optimal temperatures were in the range of 10 to 28 degrees C for two strains (maximum at 10 degrees C) and 10 to 37 degrees C for the rest. The different enzymes were partially inactivated by heating at 60 degrees C and totally inactivated at 70 degrees C. Laccases were stable in a pH range of 3.0 to 9.0 (except for strain 36A, which was partially inactivated at pH 3.0), but became inactivated at pH 2.0. Altogether these data suggest that Ch. paradoxa strains produce different laccase isoenzymes.
