Abstract
Lignin peroxidase-like genes were PCR amplified from Phanerochaete sor dida and Ceriporiopsis subvermispora, fungi lacking lignin peroxidase (LiP) activity. Amplification products were highly similar to previous ly described LiP genes. Using reverse transcription-coupled PCR a LiP- like cDNA clone was amplified from P. sordida RNA. In contrast, no evi dence was obtained for transcription of C. subvermispora LiP genes.
