Characterization of an alkali- and halide-resistant laccase expressed in E. coli: CotA from Bacillus clausii.

The limitations of fungal laccases at higher pH and salt concentrations have intensified the search for new extremophilic bacterial laccases. We report the cloning, expression, and characterization of the bacterial cotA from Bacillus clausii, a supposed alkalophilic ortholog of cotA from B. subtilis...
