Background: Laccases are among the oldest known multi-copper enzymes from a di-verse array of species, including bacteria and fungi, and are of great importance in different indus-tries like beverage, biosensors, textile, paper, and pulp. From the aspect of origin, interestingly, bac-terial laccase is of two kinds, namely, 3-domain conventional laccase and 2-domain small laccase. This enzyme is capable of degrading synthetic textile azo dyes, xenobiotic polycyclic aromatic hy-drocarbons, biogenic amines etc. Over the last few years, research on laccase has steadily increased based on biosensors and the understanding of known unknowns. Objective: In this extensive review, we focus on classification, structural differences based on assorted origins, and applications that will help to know the unknown factors about this strenuous enzyme. Conclusion: To better understand the origin-function relationship, hypothetical proteins of selected bacterial laccase are reviewed. |
