Laccase: a multi‐purpose biocatalyst at the forefront of biotechnology

Summary Laccases are multicopper containing enzymes capable of performing one electron oxidation of a broad range of substrates. Using molecular oxygen as the final electron acceptor, they release only water as a by‐product, and as such, laccases are eco‐friendly, versatile biocatalysts that have ge...
