The present invention relates to polypeptides, nucleotides encoding the polypeptide, as well as methods of producing the polypeptides. The present invention also relates to detergent composition comprising polypeptides, a laundering method and the use of polypeptides.

Claims (16)

1. A composition comprising:

(a) at least 0.002 ppm of a polypeptide having DNase activity, wherein the polypeptide comprises the motif HXXP (SEQ ID NO: 210), where H is histidine, P is proline and X is any amino acid and comprises one or both of the motifs [D/M/L][S/T]GYSR[D/N] (SEQ ID NO: 204) or ASXNRSKG (SEQ ID NO: 205), and wherein the polypeptide has at least 80% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 21,

(b) one or more polyol(s), and

(c) a surfactant,

wherein the composition is formulated as a bar, a homogenous tablet, and a tablet having two or more layers, a pouch having one or more compartments, a regular or compact powder, a granule, a paste, a gel, or a liquid.

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the polypeptide having DNase activity comprises one or more of the motifs selected from the motifs [T/D/S][G/N]PQL (SEQ ID NO: 198), [G/T]Y[D/S][R/K/L] (SEQ ID NO: 199), [E/D/H]H[I/V/L/F/M]X[P/A/S] (SEQ ID NO: 200), [F/L/Y/I]A[N/R]D[L/I/P/V] (SEQ ID NO: 201) and C[D/N]T[A/R] (SEQ ID NO: 202).

3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is a detergent composition.

4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the polyol is selected from glycerol, (mono, di, or tri) propylene glycol, ethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, sugar alcohols, sorbitol, mannitol, erythritol, dulcitol, inositol, xylitol and adonitol.

5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the polypeptide having DNase activity has at least 85% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 21.

6. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising a second enzyme.

7. The composition of claim 6 , wherein the second enzyme is a protease, amylase, or lipase.

8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the polypeptide having DNase activity has at least 90% sequence identity to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 21.

9. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the polypeptide having DNase activity is a variant of the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 21, wherein the variant has DNase activity, wherein the variant has 1-25 amino acid alterations.

10. The composition of claim 9 , wherein the alterations are substitutions.

11. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the polypeptide having DNase activity is a variant of the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 21, wherein the variant has DNase activity, wherein the variant has 1-20 amino acid substitutions, deletions, and/or insertions.

12. The composition of claim 11 , wherein the alterations are substitutions.
