Abstract

The present invention relates to compositions, methods and use of a mixture of enzymes having DNase activity and an enzyme having hexosaminidase activity.

Claims (17)

1. A method for laundering a textile, comprising:

a. exposing a textile to a wash liquor comprising an enzyme having DNase activity and an enzyme having hexosaminidase activity, wherein the enzyme having hexosaminidase activity has at least 80% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 19 or at least 85% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 20; and

b. completing at least one wash cycle.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enzyme having hexosaminidase activity has at least 85% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 19.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enzyme having hexosaminidase activity has at least 90% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 19.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enzyme having hexosaminidase activity has at least 90% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 20.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enzyme having hexosaminidase activity has at least 95% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 19.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enzyme having hexosaminidase activity has at least 95% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 20.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enzyme having hexosaminidase activity comprises SEQ ID NO: 19.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enzyme having hexosaminidase activity comprises SEQ ID NO: 20.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the enzyme having DNase activity has at least 80% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 2.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising rinsing the textile.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the pH of the wash liquor is in the range 5.5 to 11.

12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the temperature of the wash liquor is from about 20° C. to about 40° C.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the textile is pre-treated with an enzyme having DNase activity and an enzyme having hexosaminidase activity.

14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of DNase in the wash liquor is at least 0.00001 mg/L of enzyme per liter of wash liquor.

15. The method of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the polypeptide having hexosaminidase activity in the wash liquor is at least 0.00001 mg/L of enzyme per liter of wash liquor.
