Abstract: The present invention relates to variants of an alpha-amylase which have an increased solubility at pH 6.0 compared to the parent alpha-amylase. The present invention also relates to methods of making the variant alpha-amylase and the use of the variant alpha-amylase in processing starch, cleaning or washing textiles, hard surfaces, or dishes, making ethanol, treating an oil well, processing pulp or paper, animal feed, syrup production, and preparing a dough or a baked product prepared from the dough.

Abstract: The present invention relates to variants of an alpha-amylase which have an increased solubility at pH 6.0, an increased solubility at pH 10.0, a higher resistance to protein aging, and/or an increased specific activity compared to the parent alpha-amylase. The present invention also relates to methods of making the variant alpha-amylase and the use of the variant alpha-amylase in processing starch, cleaning or washing textiles, hard surfaces, or dishes, making ethanol, treating an oil well, processing pulp or paper, animal feed, syrup production, and preparing a dough or a baked product prepared from the dough.

Abstract: A mannanase at least 85% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1, a polynucleotide encoding the mannanase, an expression construct comprising the polynucleotide, and a host cell comprising the polynucleotide or the expression construct.

Abstract: Method to remove mannan comprising stains by contacting at least one mannan comprising stain with a mannanase at least 80% identical to SEQ ID NO: 1.

Abstract: A mannanase at least 75% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2, SEQ ID NO: 3, or SEQ ID NO: 4, a poly-nucleotide encoding mannanase, an expression construct comprising the polynucleotide, and a host cell comprising the polynucleotide or the expression construct.

Abstract: Genetically engineered enzymes having amylase enzyme activity, compositions comprising the enzymes, and methods of making and using the enzymes. Fragments of parent amylase enzymes activity and methods of using the fragments for making genetically engineered enzymes having amylase activity. The genetically engineered amylase enzymes are useful in many different applications such as laundry detergents, dish washing detergents, and cleaning products for homes, industry, vehicle care, baking, animal feed, pulp and paper processing, starch processing, brewing, and ethanol production.
