Abstract
The present invention relates to isolated polypeptides having protease activity, and polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the polynucleotides as well as methods of producing and using the polypeptides.
Claims14
A nucleic acid construct or expression vector comprising a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide having protease activity, wherein the polypeptide is operably linked to one or more heterologous control sequences that direct the production of the polypeptide in an expression host, and wherein the polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of:
- (a) a polypeptide having at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 95.5%, at least 96.5%, at least 97%, at least 97.5%, at least 98%, at least 98.5%, at least 99%, at least 99.5%, or 100% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 2, or the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 4 and
- (b) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide having at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 95.5%, at least 96.5%, at least 97%, at least 97.5%, at least 98%, at least 98.5%, at least 99%, at least 99.5%, or 100% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 1, or to the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 3.
A recombinant host cell comprising a polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide having protease activity, wherein the polynucleotide is operably linked to one or more control sequences that direct the production of the polypeptide, wherein the polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of:
- (a) a polypeptide having at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 95.5%, at least 96.5%, at least 97%, at least 97.5%, at least 98%, at least 98.5%, at least 99%, at least 99.5%, or 100% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 2, or the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 4 and
- (b) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide having at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 95.5%, at least 96.5%, at least 97%, at least 97.5%, at least 98%, at least 98.5%, at least 99%, at least 99.5%, or 100% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 1, or to the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 3.
A method of cleaning laundry or dishware, comprising contacting laundry or dishware with a detergent composition comprising a polypeptide having protease activity selected from the group consisting of:
- (a) a polypeptide having at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 95.5%, at least 96.5%, at least 97%, at least 97.5%, at least 98%, at least 98.5%, at least 99%, at least 99.5%, or 100% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 2, or the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
- 4 and
- (b) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide having at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 95.5%, at least 96.5%, at least 97%, at least 97.5%, at least 98%, at least 98.5%, at least 99%, at least 99.5%, or 100% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 1, or to the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 3.
