title: Lip-like genes in Phanerochaete sordida and Ceriporiopsis subvermispora, white rot fungi with no detectable lignin peroxidase activity.
abstract: Lignin peroxidase-like genes were PCR amplified from Phanerochaete sordida and Ceriporiopsis subvermispora, fungi lacking lignin peroxidase (LiP) activity. Amplification products were highly similar to previously described LiP genes. Using reverse transcription-coupled PCR a LiP-like cDNA clone was amplified from P. sordida RNA. In contrast, no evidence was obtained for transcription of C. subvermispora LiP genes.
