Abstract
The present invention provides compositions and methods related to the production and use of enzymes suitable for reducing the amount of steryl glycosides or saturated monoacyl glycerols in a lipid mixture.
Claims14
A method for reducing steryl glycoside in a sample, comprising:
- in a reaction mixture, mixing:
- (a) a thermostable enzyme comprising SEQ ID NO:
- 17 or a variant having an amino acid sequence that has at least 95% identity to SEQ ID NO:
- 17 with (b) a sample comprising steryl glycoside, under a condition suitable for said thermostable enzyme for a suitable period of time to degrade said steryl glycoside, thereby reducing steryl glycoside in said sample to obtain a processed sample, wherein said steryl glycoside comprises steryl glucoside.
