Abstract
The present invention is directed to a cleaning composition including one or more Class III or Class IV BslA (Biofilm surface layer A) proteins and a surfactant system including one or more anionic surfactants and one or more co-surfactants, in a weight of ratio of less than 9:1. Methods of making and using such compositions are also provided.
Claims18
A cleaning composition comprising one or more BslA (Biofilm surface layer A) proteins and a surfactant system comprising one or more anionic surfactants and one or more co-surfactants, wherein the weight ratio of the anionic surfactants to the co-surfactants is less than about 9:1, wherein the BslA proteins are a Class III or a Class IV BslA protein, wherein the Class III BslA protein has at least 80% amino acid identity as calculated over the entire length of a sequence aligned against the entire length of a wild-type protein sequence:
- Thermoactinomyces vulgaris BslA (SEQ ID NO:
- 6), and wherein the Class IV BslA protein has at least 80% amino acid identity as calculated over the entire length of a sequence aligned against the entire length of a wild-type protein sequence selected from the group consisting of:
- Bacillus licheniformis BslA (SEQ ID NO:
- 7, SEQ ID NO:
- 8, SEQ ID NO:
- 9, SEQ ID NO:
- 10, and SEQ ID NO:
- 11), B. glycinifermentans BslA (SEQ ID NO:
- 12, SEQ ID NO:
- 13, SEQ ID NO:
- 14, and SEQ ID NO:
- 15), B. sonorensis BslA (SEQ ID NO:
- 16), B. paralicheniformis BslA (SEQ ID NO:
- 17, and SEQ ID NO:
- 18), and Bacillus sp. BslA (SEQ ID NO:
- 19, SEQ ID NO:
- 20, SEQ ID NO:
- 21, and SEQ ID NO:
- 22).
