  • Publication number: 20230365948
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a variant of a parent lipase, wherein said variant has at least 60% but less than 100% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO: 2; has lipase activity; has substitutions corresponding to G91A and N92D in the lid region located from position G82 to position I100 of SEQ ID NO: 2; has one or more additional substitutions in the lid region; and has at least mutations in positions corresponding to position T231 and position N233 of SEQ ID NO: 2. The present invention also relates to compositions, methods for cleaning a surface using a variant or a composition of the invention; polynucleotides encoding the variants; nucleic acid constructs, vectors, host cells comprising the polynucleotides; methods of using the variants; and methods for obtaining the lipase variant.
