  • Patent number: 10954477
    Abstract: The present invention relates to reduced odor. More specifically the invention relates to a method for hydrolyzing a lipase substrate comprising: adding to said substrate a lipase variant of SEQ ID NO: 3, which variant comprises a substitution at one or more positions corresponding to positions 4; 44; 45; 49; 58; 84; 88; 93; 95; 97; 104; 108; 131; 140; 147; 152; 158; 165; 176; 177; 187; 195; 199; 208; 211; 221; 222; 224; 232; 244; 247; 248; 249; 251; 255; and 259 of SEQ ID NO: 3, has lipase activity, and has at least 75% but less than 100% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 3 or a fragment thereof with lipase activity, in which method odor is reduced when compared to the method wherein SEQ ID NO: 3 is added to the lipase substrate. The present invention also relates lipase variants, polynucleotides encoding the variants; nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the polynucleotides; and methods of producing and using the variants.

  • Publication number: 20010049585
    Abstract: A method for predicting a set of chemical, physical or biological features related to chemical substances or related to interactions of chemical substances including using at least 16 different individual prediction means, thereby providing an individual prediction of the set of features for each of the individual prediction means and predicting the set of features on the basis of combining the individual predictions, the combining being performed in such a manner that the combined prediction is more accurate on a test set than substantially any of the predictions of the individual prediction means.
