Manganese peroxidase (MnP) is a major extracellular component of the lignin-degrading system of the white-rot fungus,Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Homologous expression of recombinant MnP isozyme 1 (rMnP1) inP. chrysosporiumwas achieved using a novel transformation system for this fungus, which utilizes theStreptomyces hygroscopicusbialaphos-resistant gene,bar, as the selectable marker. The transformation frequency for this system is approximately 100 bialaphos-resistant transformants per microgram of plasmid DNA. Transformed strains all contain plasmid DNA, ectopically integrated into the fungal genome. Using this transformation system, the promoter region of theP. chrysosporiumtranslation elongation factor gene was used to drive expression ofmnp1, encoding MnP1, in primary metabolic cultures ofP. chrysosporium, where endogenous MnP was not expressed. Approximately 2–3 mg of active recombinant MnP1 per liter of extracellular medium was produced in agitated cultures of transformants.
