[Comparative stability assessment of laccases from the basidiomycetes Coriolus hirsutus and Coriolus zonatus in the presence of effectors]. / Sravnitel'noe izuchenie stabil'nosti lakkaz iz bazidiomitsetov Coriolus hirsutus i Coriolus zonatus v prisutstvii éffectorov.

Stability characteristics of the laccases of the basidiomycetes Coriolus hirsutus and Coriolus zonatus were measured comparatively at temperatures 25 and 40 degrees C in the presence of various effectors (proteins, salts, polyalcohols, polyacids, and polyelectrolytes). Stabilization effects of cations on the laccases from C. hirsutus and C. zonatus decreased in the descending series Cu2+ > Mg2+ > Ca2+ and Ca2+ > Mg2+ > Mn2+, respectively. Tween 20 caused insignificant stabilization of the two enzymes. The C. zonatus laccase was also insignificantly stabilized as a result of treatment with bovine serum albumin. The enzymatic activity of the laccase preparations from C. hirsutus and C. zonatus was conserved virtually completely after vacuum drying (84 and 93%, respectively). The most effective stabilizer of the C. hirsutus laccase was found to be dextran (17 kD). Dry preparations treated with this agent conserved up to 95% of the enzymatic activity. The most effective stabilizer of the C. zonatus was polyacrylic acid (102% of the initial activity).
