Exploring the Oxidation of Lignin-Derived Phenols by a Library of Laccase Mutants

Saturation mutagenesis was performed over six residues delimiting the substrate binding pocket of a fungal laccase previously engineered in the lab. Mutant libraries were screened using sinapic acid as a model substrate, and those mutants presenting increased activity were selected for exploring the...
