'''Laccase 2''' (Lac2) acts in lignin degradation and in detoxification of lignin products. Typically, laccases show a three cupredoxin-domain folding<ref>PMID:25586560</ref>. '''Two-domain laccase''' or small lactase have unusual resistance to inhibitors<ref>PMID:25778839</ref>. '''CotA laccase''' belongs to the multi-copper oxidase family. |
