Publication number: 20170044510Abstract: There is provided a novel cold-active alpha-amylase identified by a functional metagenomic approach expressed in E. coli and purified to homogeneity. Functional, biochemical analysis has documented that the alpha-amylase is cold-adapted with a temperature optimum at 10° C. to 20° C. and that the enzyme is active over a broad pH range. Sequence analysis has indicated that the alpha-amylase is related to Clostridia, and has revealed classical characteristics of cold-adapted enzymes.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2015Publication date: February 16, 2017Inventors: Peter STOUGAARD, Jan Kjoelhede VESTER, Mikkel Andreas GLARING

Patent number: 7081355Abstract: The present invention concerns a new ?-galactosidase with transgalactosylating activity isolated from Bifidobacterium bifidum and a truncated enzyme where the C-terminal end of the ?-galactosidase protein has been deleted, resulting in an enzyme with a higher transgalactosylating activity than hydrolase activity. When lactose is used as a substrate, galacto-oligosaccharides are products of the transgalactosylase activity. Galacto-oligosaccharides enhance growth of health-promoting Bifidobacterium that may be used in a number of applications in the dairy industry.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2003Date of Patent: July 25, 2006Assignee: Arla Foods AmbaInventors: Flemming Jørgensen, Ole Cai Hansen, Peter Stougaard
