Polypeptides Having Phospholipase C Activity and Polynucleotides Encoding Same

A polypeptide having phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C activity, selected from the group consisting of:

• a) a polypeptide having at least 91% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
• 2;
• b) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide that hybridizes under medium stringency conditions with
• i) the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
• 1, or
• ii) the full-length complement of (i);
• c) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide having at least 90% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
• 1;
• d) a variant of the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
• 2 comprising a substitution, deletion, and/or insertion at one or more positions;
• and
• e) a fragment of the polypeptide of (a), (b), (c), or (d) that has phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C activity.

A polypeptide having PC and PE specific phospholipase C activity, selected from the group consisting of:

• a) a polypeptide having at least 70% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
• 19;
• b) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide that hybridizes under low stringency conditions with
• i) the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
• 18, or
• ii) the full-length complement of (i);
• c) a polypeptide encoded by a polynucleotide having at least 70% sequence identity to the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO:
• 18;
• d) a variant of the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:
• 19 comprising a substitution, deletion, and/or insertion at one or more positions;
• and
• e) a fragment of the polypeptide of (a), (b), (c), or (d) that has PC and PE specific phospholipase C activity.
