Abstract
The present invention relates to isolated polypeptides having glucanotransferase activity and isolated nucleic acid sequences encoding the polypeptides. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences as well as methods for producing and using the polypeptides.
Claims21
An isolated polypeptide having glucanotransferase activity, selected from the group consisting of:
- (a) a polypeptide having an amino acid sequence which has at least 80% identity with the amino acid sequence shown as amino acids 1 to 501 of SEQ ID NO:2;
- (b) a polypeptide which is encoded by a nucleic acid sequence which hybridizes under medium stringency conditions with
- (i) a complementary strand of the nucleic acid sequence shown as nucleotides 1 to 1503 of SEQ ID NO:1,
- (c) a polypeptide encoded by the glucanotransferase encoding part of the DNA sequence cloned into a plasmid present in Escherichia coli DSM 13049, or a polypeptide having at least 80% identity to the polypeptide encoded by the glucanotransferase encoding part of the DNA sequence cloned into a plasmid present in Escherichia coli DSM 13049.
