Laccases have been associatedwith lignification in plants (3) and with different biologicalmechanismsin fungi, such as phytopathogenicity or resistanceto environmental or microbial stress (4). Thelaccases oxidizep- and o-diphenols, whereas tyrosinases oxidize o-diphenolsandmonophenols. Laccasesandtyrosinases arebothclassifiedin the polyphenoloxidase (PPO) group. PPOsare widespreadin nature; laccases are present primarily in various fungi andhigherplants, while the occurrenceoftyrosinases in organismsis almost universal (20). In bacteria, tyrosinase is the bestknownPPO-typeenzymeandwasfirst described in Streptomy-
