Abstract

In non-motile Azospirillum lipoferum 4T and A. lipoferum 4Bp, a laccase activity was characterized by several substrates and inhibitors. This laccase activity was required for the production of a brown-dark pigment, as melanin. Following random Tn5 mutagenesis in A. lipoferum 4T, several mutants affected in melanization and laccase activity were obtained. These mutations were located on the chromosome or on the cryptic 300 MDa plasmid of A. lipoferum 4T.
