Biosynthesis of glyantrypine by Aspergillus clavatus.

abstract：:In the current studies, we used Lineweaver-Burke analysis to examine the role of 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HBT) in the oxidation of various compounds by laccase from Trametes versicolor. At low concentrations, HBT was a competitive inhibitor of the oxidation, but at high concentrations, it was a noncompetitive inhibitor...
