Polypeptides having lipase activity and polynucleotides encoding same

An isolated polypeptide having lipase activity, selected from the group consisting of:

• (a) a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 90% identity with the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
• 10;
• (b) a polypeptide which is encoded by a polynucleotide comprising a nucleotide sequence which hybridizes under at least high stringency conditions with the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
• 9 or its full-length complementary strand, wherein high stringency conditions are defined as prehybridization and hybridization at 42° C. in 5× SSPE, 0.3% SDS, 200 μg/ml sheared and denatured salmon sperm DNA, and 50% formamide and a wash three times, each for 15 minutes using 2×SSC, 0.2% SDS at 65° C.;
• and
• (c) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleote comprising a nucleotide sequence having at least 90% identity with the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
• 9.
