DANISCO US INC.

Disclosed are compositions and methods relating to maltopentaose/maltohexaose-forming α-amylases. The variant α-amylases are useful, for example, for starch liquefaction and saccharification, for cleaning starchy stains in laundry, dishwashing, and other applications, for textile processing (e.g., desizing), in animal feed for improving digestibility, and for baking and brewing.

Disclosed herein is one or more subtilisin variant, nucleic acid encoding same, and compositions and methods related to the production and use thereof, including one or more Bacillus gibsonii -clade subtilisin variant that has improved stability and/or soil removal compared to one or more reference subtilisin.

The present disclosure provides AprL-clade protease enzymes, including variant AprL-clade protease enzymes, nucleic acids encoding same, and compositions and methods related to the production and use thereof, including an AprL-clade variant subtilisin enzyme that has improved stability and/or soil removal compared to a parent AprL-clade subtilisin enzyme.

Disclosed herein is one or more subtilisin variant, nucleic acid encoding same, and compositions and methods related to the production and use thereof, including one or more subtilisin variant that has improved stability and/or soil removal compared to one or more reference subtilisin.

The present invention provides variant subtilisins and compositions comprising at least one variant subtilisin set forth herein, as well as methods for using these variants and compositions. In some embodiments, the present invention provides variant subtilisins suitable for laundry cleaning applications.

Disclosed herein is one or more subtilisin variant, nucleic acid encoding same, and compositions and methods related to the production and use thereof, including one or more subtilisin variant that has improved stability and/or soil removal compared to one or more reference subtilisin.

Disclosed are variant α-amylases having mutations that improve enzyme stability in the presence of chelants, methods of designing such variants, and methods of use, of the resulting variants. The variant α-amylases are particularly useful, for use in cleaning and desizing composition that include significant amounts of chelants.

The present invention relates to variants of a parent glucoamylase having altered properties (e.g., improved thermostability and/or specific activity). In particular, the present invention provides compositions comprising the variant glucoamylases, including starch hydrolyzing compositions, animal feed compositions and cleaning compositions. The invention also relates to DNA constructs encoding the variants and methods of producing the glucoamylase variants in host cells.

Disclosed herein is one or more subtilisin variant, nucleic acid encoding same, and compositions and methods related to the production and use thereof, including one or more subtilisin variant that has improved stability and/or soil removal compared to one or more reference subtilisin.

Disclosed are compositions and methods relating to variant alpha-amylases. The variant alpha-amylases are useful, for example, for starch liquefaction and saccharification, for cleaning starchy stains in laundry, dishwashing, and other applications, for textile processing (e.g., desizing), in animal feed for improving digestibility, and for baking and brewing.
