ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to mutants of a blue multi-copper oxidase, comprising (a) a substitution of one or more amino acid residues with other amino acid residues, (b) an insertion of one or more amino acid residues and/or (c) a deletion of one or more amino acid residues, wherein the substitution, insertion or deletion is carried out at a position which is located no greater than 15 .ANG. from a Type I (T1) copper site. The present invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding the mutants of the present invention, host cells comprising the construct of the present invention, and methods for producing mutants of the present invention.
