Abstract: The present invention provides a xylanase comprising amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID No.1, SEQ ID No.2 or SEQ ID No.8, and a nucleotide sequence encoding said xylanase shown as SEQ ID No.3, SEQ ID No.4 or SEQ ID No.5. The present invention also provides a method of preparing a corn based product comprising contacting a plant composition comprising corn or a corn by-product or a combination thereof with said xylanase.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for solubilising arabinoxylan-containing material (particularly insoluble arabinoxylan-containing material), comprising admixing a xylan-containing material with a xylanase comprising a polypeptide sequence shown herein as SEQ ID No. 3, SEQ ID No. 2, SEQ ID No. 1, SEQ ID No. 9, SEQ ID No. 10, SEQ ID No. 11 or SEQ ID No. 15, or a variant, homologue, fragment or derivative thereof having at least 75% identity with SEQ ID No. 3 or SEQ ID No. 2 or SEQ ID No. 1 or SEQ ID No. 9 or SEQ ID No. 10 or SEQ ID No. 11 or SEQ ID No. 15; or a polypeptide sequence which comprises SEQ ID No. 3, SEQ ID No. 2, SEQ ID No. 1, SEQ ID No. 9, SEQ ID No. 10, SEQ ID No. 11 or SEQ ID No. 15 with a conservative substitution of at least one of the amino acids; or a xylanase which is encoded by a nucleotide sequence shown herein as SEQ ID No. 6, SEQ ID No. 5, SEQ ID No. 4, SEQ ID No. 12, SEQ ID No. 13, SEQ ID No. 14, SEQ ID No. 16, SEQ ID No. 17 or SEQ ID No.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of preparing a corn based product said method comprising contacting a plant composition comprising (consisting of or consisting essentially of) corn or a corn by-product or a combination thereof with a xylanase comprising: i) a polypeptide as set forth in SEQ ID No. 8 or SEQ ID No. 7 or SEQ ID No. 6; or ii) a variant, fragment, homologue, fragment or derivative thereof having at least 85% identity with SEQ ID No. 8 or SEQ ID No. 7 or SEQ ID No. 6; or with a xylanase encoded by: a) a nucleotide sequence shown herein as SEQ ID No. 3, SEQ ID No. 2 or SEQ ID No. 1; or b) a nucleotide sequence which can hybridize to the complement of SEQ ID No. 3, SEQ ID No. 2 or SEQ ID No. 1 under high stringency conditions: or c) a nucleotide sequence which has at least 80% identity with SEQ ID No. 3, SEQ ID No. 2 or SEQ ID No. 1. The present invention further relates to the use of the enzyme to produce corn based feedstuffs.

Abstract: The present compositions and methods relate to an endo-?-mannanase cloned from Bacillus agaradhaerens, polynucleotides encoding the endo-?-mannanase, and methods of use thereof. Formulations containing the endo-?-mannanase are highly suitable for use as detergents.
