Heterologous expression of an acidophilic multicopper oxidase in Escherichia coli and its applications in biorecovery of gold
Abstract Background Copper oxidase is a promising enzyme for detection of oxidation, which can function as a biosensor and in bioremediation. Previous reports have revealed that the activity of the multicopper oxidase (MCO, EC 1.10.3.2) from the Proteus hauseri ZMd44 is induced by copper ions, and h...
