Methods of reducing odor
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.
