Yellow laccases of white rot fungi Pleurotus ostreatus var. Florida and Schizophyllum commune: Catalytic properties and biotechnological potential
Laccases are the most widespread enzymes found in lignin-degrading fungi, occurring in both aquatic and terrestrial species. They are involved in lignin degradation, spore…
Biography.
Dr. Natalia N. Pozdnyakova (Doctor of Sciences, Biochemistry) is a Leading scientist at the Laboratory of Environmental Biotechnology. She has over 35 years of experience in researching the degradation of natural substrates (such as lignin) and various pollutants, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, petroleum, synthetic dyes, surfactants, and plastics by fungi and bacteria. Her work focuses primarily on isolating and studying key enzymes involved in the breakdown of these compounds, such as fungal laccases, ligninolytic peroxidases and hydrolases, as well as bacterial intracellular oxidoreductases. Throughout her career, she has authored 72 articles in journals indexed in Web of Science and Scopus.
