Abstract:
The present invention relates to the use of a parent AmyTS-23 alpha-amylase as well as variants, which variant has alpha-amylase activity and exhibits altered properties relative to the parent alpha-amylase in the production of food products, such as the use in a baking composition.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to combinatorial variants of a parent glucoamylase that have altered properties for reducing the synthesis of condensation products during hydrolysis of starch. Accordingly the variants of a parent glucoamylase are suitable such as for use within brewing and glucose syrup production. Also disclosed are DNA constructs encoding the variants and methods of producing the glucoamylase variants in host cells.
Abstract:
Described are variants (mutants) of a parent alpha-amylase having alpha-amylase activity and exhibiting altered properties relative to the parent alpha-amylase, and methods of use, thereof.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to variant glucoamylases wherein the variant has altered properties (e.g., improved thermostability and/or specific activity) compared to a corresponding parent glucoamylase. The present invention also relates to enzyme compositions comprising a variant glucoamylase (e.g., starch hydrolyzing compositions); DNA constructs comprising polynucleotides encoding the variants and methods of producing the variant glucoamylases in host cells
Abstract:
The invention relates to novel variants of the enzymatic peptide pullulanase, the gene sequences encoding said novel peptides, expression vectors comprising those gene sequences as well as organisms expressing the novel pullulanase variants. The novel pullulanase variants of the present invention were made empirically by the use of codon-optimization procedures, selective truncation of “wild-type” molecules and through the replacement of selected amino acid residues. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of these novel pullulanase peptides in the textile, fermentation, food and other industries.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are compositions comprising an alpha-amylase enzyme obtained from Bacillus sp. no. 195, and methods of using the enzyme to clean surfaces and textiles. Also disclosed are variants of the enzyme with different signal sequences.
Abstract:
A method of making a Bacillus alpha-amylase variant that increases alpha-amylase production and the alpha-amylases produced thereby. The recombinant alpha-amylases can be placed in compositions and used for purposes of laundry detergents, cleaning and dishwashing detergents, fabric desizing, starch liquefaction, cereal liquefaction, starch saccharification, biofilm removal, and starch hydrolysis in cane sugar processing.
