Eight putative N-glycosylation sites as well as consensus eukaryotic promoter sequence and polyadenylation signal sequences are also found. Coding sequence of lac4 is interrupted by 7 introns (similar in size to those of lacd), encodes a mature protein of 525aa (Mr: 57,750), and has 98% nt homology to lacd, but was otherwise identical. Molecular masses of GLAC1 and GLAC4 were 49.8 kDa (462aa) and 52.5 kDa (524aa) in comparison to T. versicolr laccase which was 56.3 kDa (524aa). Predicted PI values of GLACl, GLAC4 and T. versicolor laccase are, respectively 4.5, 4.7, and 4.2. Eight other laccase clones, distinct from lacl and lac4 have recently been isolated from G. lucidum Our results show the existence of a laccase multi-gene family in G. lucidum in agreement with our earlier results showing multiple isoforms of laccase in this organism.
