  • Patent number: 8679774
    Abstract: The substrate specificity of a lipolytic enzyme can be modified by making alterations to the amino acid sequence in a defined region of the lipolytic enzyme, so as to increase the level of a desired activity or to decrease the level of an undesired activity. Thus, the inventors have developed lipolytic enzyme variants with a modified amino acid sequence with a substrate specificity which can be tailored for specific uses.

  • Publication number: 20090029004
    Abstract: The present invention relates to phytase variants derived from a parent phytase which is homologous to a Peniophora lycii phytase and comprises at least one substitution in at least one of a number of positions corresponding to a position in the Peniophora lycii phytase. The variants are of improved properties, in particular of a higher specific activity and/or more thermostable than the parent phytase, e.g., of a Tm of up to 82° C. at pH 5.5, as determined by DSC, and/or of a doubted specific activity. The invention also relates to DNA encoding the phytase variants, methods of their production, as well as the use thereof, e.g., in animal feed and animal feed additives.

The variants are of improved properties, in particular of a higher specific activity and/or more thermostable than the parent phytase, e.g. of a Tm of up to 82° C. at pH 5.5, as determined by DSC, and/or of a doubled specific activity. The invention also relates to DNA encoding the phytase variants, methods of their production, as well as the use thereof, e.g. in animal feed and animal feed additives.
