Influence of Veratryl Alcohol and Hydrogen Peroxide on Ligninase Activity and Ligninase Production by Phanerochaete chrysosporium.

Abstract:

:Veratryl alcohol, added as a supplement to cultures of Phanerochaete chrysosporium, enhanced ligninase activity through protection of the ligninase against inactivation by hydrogen peroxide produced by this fungus in cultures. In the presence of veratryl alcohol, the loss of ligninase activity observed in non-protein-synthesizing cultures (cycloheximide-treated) equaled the extracellular protein turnover. When cultures were not supplemented with veratryl alcohol, inactivation of ligninase by hydrogen peroxide added to protein turnover, resulting in a more rapid loss of ligninase activity. Although all ligninase isoenzymes are sensitive to inactivation by hydrogen peroxide, only the isoenzyme of the highest specific activity (80.6 nkat . mg of protein; M(r), 41,800; pI, 3.96) was found to be protected by veratryl alcohol. The concentration of veratryl alcohol necessary for full protection of ligninase activity varied according to the concentration of hydrogen peroxide present in the medium, which depended on the nature of the carbon source (glucose or glycerol). It is proposed that the nature of the carbon source influences the overall ligninase activity not only directly, by affecting the rate and the type of synthesized ligninase, but also by affecting the rate of hydrogen peroxide production, bringing about different rates of inactivation.
