The ability of Neurospora to solubilize and bioconvert coal was investigated. The coal solubilizing activity (CSA) was fractionated to isolate the enzyme responsible for this activity. The enzyme was purified in order to obtain the amino acid sequence. From that sequence potential oligonucleotide probes were synthesized and used to screen genomic library of Neurospora. The gene so identified was isolated. CSA appears to be an phenol oxidase or is tyrosinase
