Abstract: Dough with a high sucrose content (such as cake dough) tends to inhibit the activity of an anti-staling amylase such as Novamyl®, making it less effective to prevent the staling of dough-based products with high sucrose content such as cakes. A good anti-staling effect in cakes can be achieved by using a carefully selected anti-staling amylase with certain properties. Analysis of a 3D structure of Novamyl® shows that sucrose may inhibit by binding in the active site. Sucrose docks into the active site of Novamyl® differently from the substrate or inhibitor in published models 1QHO and 1QHP. This finding is used to design sucrose-tolerant variants.

Abstract: The present invention relates to detergent compositions comprising a detergent ingredient and a lipase variant with reduced potential for odor generation obtained by introducing mutations in one or more regions identified in a parent lipase.

Abstract: The invention provides polypeptides obtained by introducing mutations in one or more regions identified in a parent lipase. The polypeptides of the present invention have surprisingly been found to have a low specific activity towards short chain fatty acids leading to a reduced odor generation and an increased BR over the lipases known in the art.

Abstract: This invention relates to compositions comprising certain lipase enzymes and processes for making and using such compositions, including the use of such compositions to clean and/or treat a situs.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel subtilase variants exhibiting alterations relative to the parent subtilase in one or more properties including: wash performance, thermal stability, storage stability or catalytic activity. The variants of the invention are suitable for use in, e.g., cleaning or detergent compositions, such as laundry detergent compositions and dish wash compositions, including automatic dish wash compositions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to enzymes produced by mutating the genes for a number of subtilases and expressing the mutated genes in suitable hosts are presented. The enzymes exhibit improved wash performance in any detergent in comparison to their wild type parent enzymes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to subtilase variants having a reduced tendency towards inhibition by substances present in eggs, such as trypsin inhibitor type IV-0. In particular, the variants comprise at least one additional amino acid residue between positions 42–43, 51–56, 155–161, 187–190, 216–217, 217–218 or 218–219 (in BASBPN numbering). These subtilase variants are useful exhibiting excellent or improved wash performance on egg stains when used in e.g. cleaning or detergent compositions, such as laundry detergent compositions and dishwash composition, including automatic dishwash compositions. Also, isolated DNA sequences encoding the variants, expression vectors, host cells, and methods for producing and using the variants of the invention. Further, cleaning and detergent compositions comprising the variants are disclosed.
