Abstract
A thermostable glycosidase enzymes derived from various Thermococcus, Staphylothermus and Pyrococcus organisms is disclosed. The enzymes are produced from native or recombinant host cells and can be utilized in the food processing industry, pharmaceutical industry and in the textile industry, detergent industry and in the baking industry.
Claims12
An isolated, synthetic or recombinant vector comprising a nucleic acid comprising:
- (a) a nucleic acid sequence having at least 90%, 95%, 97%, 99%, or 100% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:12, wherein the nucleic acid encodes a polypeptide having a glycosidase activity or fragment thereof having a glycosidase activity;
- (b) a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide having a glycosidase activity, wherein the polypeptide comprises the sequence of SEQ ID NO:
- 26 or fragment thereof having a glycosidase activity;
- (c) the nucleic acid of (a) or (b) encoding a polypeptide having a glycosidase activity but lacking a native leader sequence;
- or
- (d) sequences fully complementary to the nucleic acids of (a) through (c).
An isolated, synthetic, or recombinant vector comprising a nucleic acid comprising a nucleic acid comprising SEQ ID NO:
- 12, wherein the nucleic acid endcodes a polypeptide having a glycosidase activity or a fragment thereof having glycosidase activity.
An isolated, synthetic, or recombinant vector comprising a nucleic acid comprising a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide having a glycosidase activity, wherein the polypeptide comprises the sequence of SEQ ID NO:26 or a fragment thereof having glycosidase activity.
