Phenol oxidase, peroxidase and organic matter dynamics of soil (2010, background): “archaea as are functionally similar enzymes that contain varying numbers and combinations of Cu, Mn, Zn or Fe atoms (Claus, 2003; Baldrian, 2006; Dalfard et al., 2006; Mayende et al., 2006; McMahon et al., 2007; Kellner et al., 2008; Li et al., 2008).”
The emerging role for bacteria in lignin degradation and bio-product formation. (2011, background): “genomic data available it is becoming clear that laccases are widespread amongst bacteria, where they are thought to play a role in pigmentation, sporulation and metal tolerance [36].”
Laccases: toward disentangling their diversity and functions in relation to soil organic matter cycling (2010, background): “They have the potential to oxidize the naturally occurring laccase substrate 2,6-dimethoxyphenol (Kellner et al. 2008; Solano et al. 2001).”
Forest Soil Bacteria: Diversity, Involvement in Ecosystem Processes, and Response to Global Change (2017, background): “For example, abundant bacterial laccase genes have been found in temperate hardwood forests (172), and bacterial taxa possessing laccases, such as Burkholderia, Bradyrhizobium, and Azospirillum, are highly active in forest soils (173).”
