Enhancement of laccase production by Cerrena unicolor through fungal interspecies interaction and optimum conditions determination
2021
The present study aimed to identify a pair of fungal strains that promote laccase production in the co-cultivation of white-rot basidiomycetes and to determine the optimum conditions to enhance enzyme synthesis under co-fermentation of mandarin peels. Co-cultivation of Cerrena unicolor with Trametes versicolor, Lenzites betulina, and Panus lecomtei led to up-regulation of laccase activity. Moreover, interspecific interaction of Cerrena unicolor and Trametes versicolor induced the production of two new laccase isoenzymes. By contrast, interactions of Cerrena unicolor with Trametes coccineus and Trametes hirsuta resulted in a multiple decreased ability of Cerrena unicolor to produce laccase. Co-cultivation of Cerrena unicolor with other fungi 3- to 12-fold down-regulated manganese peroxidase (MnP) activity. The outcomes of these fungal interactions are closely related to the initial concentration and availability of the nutrients, the partners’ inoculum ratio, time, and sequence of their inoculation. Co-cultivation of Cerrena unicolor and Trametes versicolor in fermenter resulted in the accumulation of 476 U/mL laccase and 1.12 U/mL MnP.
