Bilirubin oxidases are multicopper oxidases containing type 1, type 2, and type 3 coppers. Indeed, there is strong sequence homology between bilirubin oxidase and multicopper oxidases like laccase, ascorbate oxidase and even ceruloplasmin. Moreover, the His-Cys-His sequence, characteristic of multicopper oxidase, is present in bilirubin oxidase. Copper is essential for the enzyme activity.<ref name="multic">Atsushi Shimizu, Jung-Hee Kwon, Takashi Sasaki, Takanori Satoh, Nobuhiko Sakurai, Takeshi Sakurai, Shotaro Yamaguchi, Tatsuya Samejima, ''Myrothecium verrucaria'' Bilirubin Oxidase and Its Mutants for Potential Copper Ligands (1999)[https://doi.org/10.1021/bi9819531]</ref>
