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.
Claims34
A method for reducing steryl glycoside in a sample, comprising:
- In a reaction mixture, mixing a thermostable enzyme with 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.
An isolated thermostable enzyme that is capable of hydrolyzing the glycosidic bond of steryl glycosides or acylated steryl glycosides.
