Abstract

The present invention relates to isolated polypeptides having lipase activity and isolated polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the polynucleotides as well as methods for producing and using the polypeptides.

Claims (11)

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

(a) a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence having the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 10;

(b) 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.

2. The polypeptide of claim 1 , which comprises or consists of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 10.

3. The polypeptide of claim 2 , which comprises or consists of the mature polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 10.

4. The polypeptide of claim 1 , which is encoded by a polynucleotide comprising or consisting of the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 9.

5. The polypeptide of claim 4 , which is encoded by a polynucleotide comprising or consisting of the mature polypeptide coding sequence of SEQ ID NO: 9.

6. The polypeptide of claim 1 , which is encoded by the polynucleotide contained in plasmid pBM134b which is contained in E. coli NRRL B-30786.

7. The polypeptide of claim 1 , wherein the mature polypeptide is amino acids 22 to 578 of SEQ ID NO: 10.

8. The polypeptide of claim 1 , wherein the mature polypeptide coding sequence is nucleotides 64 to 1789 of SEQ ID NO: 9.

9. A detergent composition comprising the polypeptide of claim 1 and a surfactant.
