Abstract

The genome sequence of various Flammulina species has recently been reported, thereby revealing a diverse genetic repertoire. In this study, we identified laccase genes and analyzed their structural characteristics in Flammulina elastica (F. elastica) genome. Through genome analysis and bioinformatics approaches, three laccase genes (Fe-lac1, -lac2, and -lac3) were identified, ranging from 1,548 to 1,602 bp in length. These genes contained a copper ion-binding region with ten histidine residues and one cysteine residue and a disulfide bond-forming region with four cysteine residues. Full-length cDNA sequencing analysis revealed that laccase genes contain 12 to 16 introns and signal peptides between 17 and 22 bp in the N-terminus. Structural characterization of the laccase genes identified in this study should help in better understanding the biomass decomposition of F. elastica.
