The present application relates to peptides which bind to a target stain,
phenol oxidizing enzyme-binding peptide complexes wherein the binding
peptide is attached to the C-terminus of the phenol oxidizing enzyme or
is inserted or substituted into the phenol oxidizing enzyme. In a
preferred embodiment the phenol oxidizing enzyme is a laccase
specifically Stachybotrys oxidase B and variants thereof. The invention
provides expression vectors comprising the phenol oxidizing
enzyme-binding peptide complex as well as host cells comprising the
vectors.
