Production sago starch from Indonesia reached 585,000 tons in 2015 has become the largest in the world. However sago starch has a weakness that is brownish color, unpleasant smells and soft texture. The weaknes can be overcome by adding laccase in the bleaching process. The purpose of this study is production of laccase from edible mushroom from market in liquid fermentation. Materials used are Plurotusostreatus mushroom, Agaricusbisporus and Rhyzopusoligosporus obtained from the market. The results showed that Pleurotusostreatus on petri dish led to a thick brownish red ring zone showing the ability of laccase to oxide guaicol and syringaldazine compounds. The result of 21st days fermentation of laccase production from Pleurotus, Agaricus, Rhyzopusrespectively is 774 U/L, 484 U / L and 480 U / in 500 ml, erlenmeyer flask. Laccase production in 500 mL erlenmeyer flask Pleurotus have the highest result. These result indicate that Pleurotus has a potensial as a fungi for laccase production through liquid fermentation.
