Geotrichum DyP

Fig. 3.4 Stereoviews of conserved amino acid residues (and corresponding helices and P-strands) at the proximal (bottom) and distal (top) sides of the heme pocket in LiP (a), CPO (b), and DyP (c) (some water molecules, as small spheres, and one hydrogen bond are indicated). Based on crystal structures of P. chrysosporium LiP (PDB 1LLP), L. fumago CPO (PDB 1CPO) and Geotrichum DyP (PDB 2D3Q)...

The first pieces of evidence for the existence of these peroxidases were found in 1995 in a screening for microorganisms decolorizing synthetic dyes [91]. Four years later, the first DyP was purified and characterized from cultures of the Geotrichum-type anamorph of a basidiomycete identified as Thanatephorus cucumeris, although the...
