A blue enzyme from marine bacterium for green technological applications

Laccases are the green tools that can find potential applications in various industries. There are many reports available on laccases from plants and fungal sources but very few reports are available on bacterial laccases. Bacterial laccases show broad range of substrate specificity and it is easy to isolate and purify the bacterial extracellular laccases as compared to fungal laccases. Therefore, there are many advantages of bacterial laccases over fungal laccases. [GRAPHICS] .
