Cloning of a manganese peroxidase cDNA gene repressed by manganese in Trametes versicolor

J Microbiol. 2005 Dec;43(6):569-71.

Abstract

White-rot fungi have the following enzyme systems for lignin degradation: laccase, lignin peroxidase and manganese peroxidase. There are other types of peroxidases related to lignin degradation, one of which we have cloned a cDNA gene of manganese-repressed peroxidase (MrP) in Trametes versicolor isolated in South Korea. The mrp transcript level has been decreased by 1 micrometer of Mn(2+).
