Two laccase isoenzyme genes (lcc2 and lcc3) from the white-rot fungus Coriolopsis rigida were cloned, and together with the previously described lcc1, their transcript levels were analysed by Quantitative RT-PCR in order to study their expression patterns under a range of putative inducers (Cu2+, Mn2+, Fe3+, 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone, H2O2, caffeine, amphotericin B and syringic acid). The highest induction was observed for lcc1 in presence of copper, and thus, a kinetic study was performed to analyze its effect on temporary lcc1 gene expression. Our results showed that upregulation due to copper was linked to growth stage, being highest during the trophophase and decreasing during the idiophase. Amphotericin B increased levels of transcripts of lcc1 and lcc2, syringic acid upregulated lcc1 and lcc3 and 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone induced lcc2 and lcc3. Possible reasons for why laccase genes from C. rigida are differentially regulated at the transcriptional level are discussed.
