The ligninolytic enzymes of the basidiomycetes play a key role in the global carbon cycle. A characteristic property of these enzymes is their broad substrate specificity, which has led to their use in various biotechnologies, thus stimulating research into the three‐dimensional structures of ligninolytic enzymes. This paper presents the purification, crystallization and preliminary X‐ray analysis of the laccase from the ligninolytic basidiomycete Ganoderma lucidum .
