Structural Studies of a Fungal Polyphenol Oxidase with Application to Bioremediation of Contaminated Water

Polyphenol oxidases (PPOs) are a group of Cu-containing enzymes exhibiting two activities: catechol oxidase and tyrosinase. Their precise mechanism of action and the structural elements that determine the distinction between the two activities are yet to be fully understood. In nature, PPOs catalyze...
