Abstract:
1. A purified polypeptide comprising: a) the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; b) a polypeptide having laccase activity and comprising an amino acid sequence that has greater than 90% amino acid sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; c) a fragment of the polypeptide set forth in a) or b), said fragment having laccase activity or a fragment of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:2, the N-terminal residue of the fragment being any one of the residues 140-145 of SEQ ID NO: 2 and the C-terminal residue of the fragment being any one of the residues 524-579 of SEQ ID NO: 2, said fragment having laccase activity; or d) a polypeptide having laccase activity and comprising the amino acid sequence of amino acids 32-579 of SEQ ID NO: 2.
