Abstract
In this study, laccase activity, rate of weight loss and degree of lignin degradation of pine wood chips were determined during the liquid and solid state incubation with Polyporus brumalis. The results showed that laccase enzyme activity at untreated wood chip was gradually decreased after 20 days, but enzyme activity with wood chip treatment showed 10 times higher than untreated ones at 60 incubation days. Rate of weight losses of pine chip and rate of lignin loss were 23.4% and 6.3% by P. brumalis during 80 incubation days. Gene expression of pblac1 from P. brumalis was 3 times increased under pine chip treatment at 40 incubation days. Consequently, laccase activity of white rot fungi, P. brumalis, was increased at incubation with wood chip and pblac1 gene was important factor of lignin degradation. Therefore, to regulate lignin degrading enzyme gene expression by using the tools of biotechnology will be able to develop superior strains and it will be useful for pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass at bioethanol production.
