Abstract

An extracellular laccase enzyme secreted from Sphingobacterium ksn-11 was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity, showing a molecular weight of 90 kDa. The purified enzyme was monomeric in nature confirmed by sodium dodecyl gel electrophoresis. The optimum temperature and pH were found to be 40 °C and 4.5 respectively. The enzyme showed highest substrate specificity for 2,2 azinobis (ethylthiozoline-6-sulfonate) (ABTS), followed by syringaldazine. The Km value for ABTS was 2.12 mM with a Vmax value of 33.33 U/mg which was higher when compared with syringaldazine and guaiacol substrates. Sodium azide and EDTA inhibited the activity by 30%, whereas presence of Ca2+ and iron increased activity by 50%. The purified enzyme was immobilized in sodium alginate-silicon dioxide-polyvinyl alcohol beads and evaluated for diclofenac transformation studies. LC-MS analysis confirmed that immobilized laccase transformed diclofenac to 4-OH diclofenac after 4 h of incubation. 45 % of diclofenac was able to transform even at 3rd cycle of immobilized laccase use. Therefore, immobilized laccase can be used to transform or degrade several recalcitrant compounds from industrial effluents. Keywords Laccase . Purification . Immobilization .

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology

Introduction Laccase (benzenediol: oxygen oxidoreductases; EC 1.10.3.2) is an important class of enzymes, which has become remarkable scientific interest due to its greater catalytic capability to various phenolic and non-phenolic compounds with simultaneous reduction of oxygen to water molecule. The catalytic domain consists of three copper redox sites (T1, T2, and T3) [1, 2]. T1 site is involved in the oxidation of substrates; meanwhile, T2 and T3 are involved in a trinuclear cluster formation for electron movement by molecular reduction. This distinct property makes this enzyme versatile and employed in various industrial and environmental applications such as cosmetics, bioremediation, biofuel, and biosensor technology [3, 4]. The persistent studies on many fungal laccases have been vastly characterized and utilized for effluent azo dye detoxification [5], textile, and in production of industrially important compounds [6]. Bacterial laccases, on the other hand, gained focus, and genomic analysis revealed that enzymes are wide spread in
