Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are hard to be degraded in nature, and are also accumulated in diverse organisms. They finally give negative effects to human through the food web. White rot fungi which have lignin-degrading enzymes have high potentials for degradation of recalcitrant compounds, and a white rot fungus, Phlebia tremellosa, isolated in Korea show good degrading activity against the endocrine disrupting phthalates. We have isolated a laccase cDNA which was involved in the degradation of EDCs, and constructed a laccase expression vector to use in the genetic transformation of P. tremellosa. The expression vector was stably integrated into the chromosomal DNAs and showed increased laccase activity in transformants. One of transformants showed not only increased degradation of several EDCs but also faster estrogenic decreasing activities generated by the EDCs.
