Abstract
Growth temperature played an important role in the appearance, maximum level and ratio of manganese peroxidase (MnP) and lignin peroxidase ( LIP) activities in the cultures of Phanerochaete chrysosporium. While at higher temperatures (39, 33, and 28 degrees C) both enzymes were pr oduced (with LIP being the major one) at 23 degrees C MnP was dominant . Ar 18 degrees C, of the two ligninolytic peroxidases only MnP activi ty was detected. Decrease of proteolytic activity at lower temperature s probably contributed to the retention of MnP and LIP activities.
