Laccases are capable of rapidly oxidizing benzo[a]pyrene. It is thought that the metabolites with an increase in water solubility caused by the oxidation of benzo[a]pyrene may stimulate the subsequent mineralization. However, to date, there has been no experimental evidence to support this. In this study, the fate of benzo[a]pyrene in soil affected by laccase amendment and the resulting soil bacterial responses were investigated. Laccase amendment promoted benzo[a]pyrene dissipation (15.6%) from soil, accompanied by trace mineralization (<0.58 ± 0.02%) and substantial bound residue formation (∼80%). An increase of ∼15% in the bound residue fraction was observed by laccase amendment, which mainly resulted from covalent binding of the residues to humin fraction. During the incubation, the abundance of bacterial 16S rRNA and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase genes did not change markedly. In contrast, benzo[a]pyrene treated with laccase resulted in a smaller shift in the bacterial community composition, indicating a reduced disturbance to the soil microbial communities. These results here suggest that benzo[a]pyrene contaminated soil can be detoxified by laccase amendment mainly due to the enhanced bound residue formation to soil organic matter via covalent binding.
