- reaction emulsions were made by applying high shear mixing for two minutes (24000 m-1, Ultra Turrax T25, Janke & Kunkel), and then transferring 150 ⁇ to 96-well microtiter plate wells already containing 30 ⁇ enzyme samples. Free fatty acid generation was measured using an in vitro enzymatic colorimetric assay for the quantitative determination of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA). This method is specific for free fatty acids, and relies upon the acylation of coenzyme A (CoA) by the fatty acids in the presence of added acyl-CoA synthetase.
- CoA coenzyme A
- the acyl-CoA thus produced is oxidized by added acyl-CoA oxidase with generation of hydrogen peroxide, in the presence of peroxidase.
- This permits the oxidative condensation of 3-methy-N-ethyl-N-(hydroxyethyl)-aniline with 4-aminoantipyrine to form a purple colored adduct, which can be measured colorimetrically.
- the amount of free fatty acids generated after a 6 minute incubation at 30°C was determined using the materials in a NEFA HR(2) kit (Wako Chemicals GmbH, Germany) by transferring 30 ⁇ ⁇ of the hydrolysis solution to 96-well microtiter plate wells already containing 120 ⁇ ⁇ NEFA A solution. Incubation for three min at 30°C was followed by addition of 60 ⁇ NEFA B solution. After incubation for 4.5 min at 30°C, OD was measured at 520 nm.
- Table 4-1 shows hydrolysis of trioleate and trioctanoate by SgrLip2. Data for triglyceride hydrolysis was determined as ⁇ free fatty acid. The results are reported relative to the activity on trioctanoate (C8) in buffer, which was set to 100.
- Table 4-2 shows trioctanoate hydrolysis by SgrLip2 in the presence or absence of various detergents at pH 8.2 and pH 10.0. Data for trioctanoate hydrolysis in the presence of detergent is reported as percent trioctanoate hydrolysis in the presence of detergent relative to trioctanoate hydrolysis in the absence of detergent at both pH values tested.
- SgrLips shows lipase activity in various liquid and powder detergents as a function of detergent concentration.
- the buffers used were 20 mM HEPES (final concentration) pH 8.2 for testing liquid detergents, and 20 mM CAPS (final concentration) pH 10.0 for testing powder detergents.
- AL, Aa, Ab are differences in CIE L*, CIE a*, and CIE b* values respectively before and after cleaning, where L* defines lightness and a r and b r define chromaticity (See, e.g., Precise Color Communication: Color Control From Perception to Instrumentation, Konica Minolta Sensing, Inc., Osaka, Japan, pp. 32-59, 1998).

Description
DETERGENT COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING STREPTOMYCES GRISEUS LIPASE
AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
TECHNICAL FIELD
[001] The present compositions and methods relate to a lipase cloned from Streptomyces griseus, polynucleotides encoding the lipase, and methods of use thereof. Formulations containing the lipase are highly suitable for use as detergents.
BACKGROUND
[002] Current laundry detergent and/or fabric care compositions include a complex combination of active ingredients such as surfactants, enzymes (protease, amylase, lipase, and/or cellulase), bleaching agents, a builder system, suds suppressors, soil- suspending agents, soil- release agents, optical brighteners, softening agents, dispersants, dye transfer inhibition compounds, abrasives, bactericides, and perfumes.
[003] Lipolytic enzymes, including lipases and cutinases, have been employed in detergent cleaning compositions for the removal of oily stains by hydrolyzing triglycerides to generate fatty acids. However, these enzymes are often inhibited by surfactants and other components present in cleaning composition, interfering with their ability to remove oily stains.
Accordingly, the need exists for lipases and cutinases that can function in the harsh environment of cleaning compositions.
[004] There also exists a need for more robust and efficient lipases and cutinases that are effective in performing transesterification reactions for the production of biofuels, lubricants, and other synthetic and semi-synthetic hydrocarbons. Preferably, such enzymes will utilize naturally occurring or commonly available starting materials and will not require protection and deprotection steps in a synthesis reaction, which complicate the synthesis and lead to the production of toxic waste products.
SUMMARY
[005] The present compositions and methods relate to lipase2 cloned from Streptomyces griseus (SgrLip2). Formulations containing the lipase are highly suitable for use as detergents.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
I. Introduction
[0012] Described are compositions and methods relating to lipase cloned from Streptomyces griseus (SgrLip2). The compositions and methods are based, in part, on the observation that cloned and expressed SgrLip2 has carboxylic ester hydrolase activity in the presence of detergent compositions. This feature of SgrLip2 makes it well suited for use in a variety of cleaning applications, where the enzyme can hydrolyze lipids in the presence of surfactants and other components found in detergent compositions.
[0013] While SgrLip2 shows activity against a variety of natural and synthetic substrates, the enzyme has shown a preference for C4-16 substrates, with peak activity against C8 substrates. This specificity makes SgrLip2 well suited for hydrolysis of short-chain triglycerides and for performing transesterification reactions involving short-chain fatty acids.

Exemplary assays include, but are not limited to those described in WO 99/34011 and US Pat. No. 6,605,458 (both of which are herein incorporated by reference), as well as those methods included in the Examples.
[0033] The term "cleaning effective amount" of a lipase refers to the quantity of lipase described hereinbefore that achieves a desired level of enzymatic activity in a specific cleaning composition. Such effective amounts are readily ascertained by one of ordinary skill in the art and are based on many factors, such as the particular lipase used, the cleaning application, the specific composition of the cleaning composition, and whether a liquid or dry (e.g. , granular, bar) composition is required, etc.
[0034] The term "cleaning adjunct materials," as used herein, means any liquid, solid or gaseous material selected for the particular type of cleaning composition desired and the form of the product (e.g. , liquid, granule, powder, bar, paste, spray, tablet, gel, or foam composition), which materials are also preferably compatible with the lipase enzyme used in the composition. In some embodiments, granular compositions are in "compact" form, while in other
embodiments, the liquid compositions are in a "concentrated" form.
[0035] As used herein, "cleaning compositions" and "cleaning formulations" refer to admixtures of chemical ingredients that find use in the removal of undesired compounds (e.g. , soil or stains) from items to be cleaned, such as fabric, dishes, contact lenses, other solid surfaces, hair, skin, teeth, and the like. The composition or formulations may be in the form of a liquid, gel, granule, powder, or spray, depending on the surface, item or fabric to be cleaned, and the desired form of the composition or formulation.
[0036] As used herein, the terms "detergent composition" and "detergent formulation" refer to mixtures of chemical ingredients intended for use in a wash medium for the cleaning of soiled objects. Detergent compositions/formulations generally include at least one surfactant, and may
optionally include hydrolytic enzymes, oxido-reductases, builders, bleaching agents, bleach activators, bluing agents and fluorescent dyes, caking inhibitors, masking agents, enzyme activators, antioxidants, and solubilizers.
[0037] As used herein, "dishwashing composition" refers to all forms of compositions for cleaning dishware, including cutlery, including but not limited to granular and liquid forms. In some embodiments, the dishwashing composition is an "automatic dishwashing" composition that finds use in automatic dish washing machines. It is not intended that the present disclosure be limited to any particular type or dishware composition. Indeed, the present disclosure finds use in cleaning dishware (e.g. , dishes including, but not limited to plates, cups, glasses, bowls, etc.) and cutlery (e.g., utensils including, but not limited to spoons, knives, forks, serving utensils, etc.) of any material, including but not limited to ceramics, plastics, metals, china, glass, acrylics, etc. The term "dishware" is used herein in reference to both dishes and cutlery.
[0038] As used herein, the term "bleaching" refers to the treatment of a material (e.g., fabric, laundry, pulp, etc.) or surface for a sufficient length of time and under appropriate pH and temperature conditions to effect a brightening (i.e. , whitening) and/or cleaning of the material. Examples of chemicals suitable for bleaching include but are not limited to CIO2, H202, peracids, NO2, etc.
[0039] As used herein, "wash performance" of a variant lipase refers to the contribution of a variant lipase to washing that provides additional cleaning performance to the detergent without the addition of the variant lipase to the composition. Wash performance is compared under relevant washing conditions.
[0040] The term "relevant washing conditions" is used herein to indicate the conditions, particularly washing temperature, time, washing mechanics, sud concentration, type of detergent, and water hardness, actually used in households in a dish or laundry detergent market segment.
[0041] As used herein, the term "disinfecting" refers to the removal of contaminants from the surfaces, as well as the inhibition or killing of microbes on the surfaces of items. It is not intended that the present disclosure be limited to any particular surface, item, or contaminant(s) or microbes to be removed.
[0042] The "compact" form of the cleaning compositions herein is best reflected by density and, in terms of composition, by the amount of inorganic filler salt. Inorganic filler salts are conventional ingredients of detergent compositions in powder form. In conventional detergent compositions, the filler salts are present in substantial amounts, typically about 17 to about 35%
by weight of the total composition. In contrast, in compact compositions, the filler salt is present in amounts not exceeding about 15% of the total composition. In some embodiments, the filler salt is present in amounts that do not exceed about 10%, or more preferably, about 5%, by weight of the composition. In some embodiments, the inorganic filler salts are selected from the alkali and alkaline-earth-metal salts of sulfates and chlorides. In some embodiments, a preferred filler salt is sodium sulfate.
[0043] As used herein, the terms "textile" or "textile material" refer to woven fabrics, as well as staple fibers and filaments suitable for conversion to or use as yarns, woven, knit, and non-woven fabrics. The term encompasses yarns made from natural, as well as synthetic (e.g., manufactured) fibers.
[0044] As used herein, the terms "purified" and "isolated" refer to the physical separation of a subject molecule, such as SgrLip2, from other molecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, media components, and the like. Once purified or isolated, a subject molecule may represent at least 50%, and even at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, or more, of the total amount of material in a sample (wt/wt).
[0045] As used herein, a "polypeptide" refers to a molecule comprising a plurality of amino acids linked through peptide bonds. The terms "polypeptide," "peptide," and "protein" are used interchangeably. Proteins maybe optionally be modified (e.g. , glycosylated, phosphorylated, acylated, farnesylated, prenylated, sulfonated, and the like) to add functionality. Where such amino acid sequences exhibit activity, they may be referred to as an "enzyme." The
conventional one- letter or three-letter codes for amino acid residues are used, with amino acid sequences being presented in the standard amino-to-carboxy terminal orientation (i.e. , N→C).
[0046] The terms "polynucleotide" encompasses DNA, RNA, heteroduplexes, and synthetic molecules capable of encoding a polypeptide. Nucleic acids may be single-stranded or double- stranded, and may have chemical modifications. The terms "nucleic acid" and "polynucleotide" are used interchangeably. Because the genetic code is degenerate, more than one codon may be used to encode a particular amino acid, and the present compositions and methods encompass nucleotide sequences which encode a particular amino acid sequence. Unless otherwise indicated, nucleic acid sequences are presented in a 5'-to-3' orientation.
[0047] As used herein, the terms "wild-type" and "native" refer to polypeptides or polynucleotides that are found in nature.
[0048] The terms, "wild-type," "parental," or "reference," with respect to a polypeptide, refer to a naturally-occurring polypeptide that does not include a man-made substitution, insertion, or deletion at one or more amino acid positions. Similarly, the terms "wild- type," "parental," or "reference," with respect to a polynucleotide, refer to a naturally-occurring polynucleotide that does not include a man-made nucleoside change. However, note that a polynucleotide encoding a wild-type, parental, or reference polypeptide is not limited to a naturally-occurring polynucleotide, and encompasses any polynucleotide encoding the wild-type, parental, or reference polypeptide.
[0049] As used herein, a "variant polypeptide" refers to a polypeptide that is derived from a parent (or reference) polypeptide by the substitution, addition, or deletion, of one or more amino acids, typically by recombinant DNA techniques. Variant polypeptides may differ from a parent polypeptide by a small number of amino acid residues and may be defined by their level of primary amino acid sequence homology/identity with a parent polypeptide. Preferably, variant polypeptides have at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, or even at least 99% amino acid sequence identity with a parent polypeptide.
[0050] Sequence identity may be determined using known programs such as BLAST, ALIGN, and CLUSTAL using standard parameters. (See, e.g. , Altschul et al. [1990] /. Mol. Biol. 215:403-410; Henikoff et al. [1989] Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89: 10915; Karin ei a/. [1993] Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci USA 90:5873; and Higgins et al. [1988] Gene 73:237-244). Software for performing BLAST analyses is publicly available through the National Center for Biotechnology Information. Databases may also be searched using FASTA (Pearson et al. [1988] Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85:2444-2448). One indication that two polypeptides are substantially identical is that the first polypeptide is immunologically cross-reactive with the second polypeptide.
Typically, polypeptides that differ by conservative amino acid substitutions are immunologically cross-reactive. Thus, a polypeptide is substantially identical to a second polypeptide, for example, where the two peptides differ only by a conservative substitution. .
[0051] As used herein, a "variant polynucleotide" encodes a variant polypeptide, has a specified degree of homology/identity with a parent polynucleotide, or hybridized under stringent conditions to a parent polynucleotide or the complement, thereof. Preferably, a variant polynucleotide has at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least
98%, or even at least 99% nucleotide sequence identity with a parent polynucleotide. Methods for determining percent identity are known in the art and described immediately above.
[0052] The term "derived from" encompasses the terms "originated from," "obtained from," "obtainable from," "isolated from," and "created from," and generally indicates that one specified material find its origin in another specified material or has features that can be described with reference to the another specified material.
[0053] As used herein, the term "hybridization" refers to the process by which a strand of nucleic acid joins with a complementary strand through base pairing, as known in the art.
[0054] As used herein, the phrase "hybridization conditions" refers to the conditions under which hybridization reactions are conducted. These conditions are typically classified by degree of "stringency" of the conditions under which hybridization is measured. The degree of stringency can be based, for example, on the melting temperature (Tm) of the nucleic acid binding complex or probe. For example, "maximum stringency" typically occurs at about Tm-5° C (5° below the Tm of the probe); "high stringency" at about 5-10° below the Tm; "intermediate stringency" at about 10-20° below the Tm of the probe; and "low stringency" at about 20-25° below the Tm. Alternatively, or in addition, hybridization conditions can be based upon the salt or ionic strength conditions of hybridization and/or one or more stringency washes, e.g.,: 6X SSC = very low stringency; 3X SSC = low to medium stringency; IX SSC = medium stringency; and 0.5X SSC = high stringency. Functionally, maximum stringency conditions may be used to identify nucleic acid sequences having strict identity or near-strict identity with the hybridization probe; while high stringency conditions are used to identify nucleic acid sequences having about 80% or more sequence identity with the probe. For applications requiring high selectivity, it is typically desirable to use relatively stringent conditions to form the hybrids (e.g., relatively low salt and/or high temperature conditions are used). As used herein, stringent conditions are defined as 50°C and 0.2X SSC (IX SSC = 0.15 M NaCl, 0.015 M sodium citrate, pH 7.0).
[0055] The phrases "substantially similar and "substantially identical" in the context of at least two nucleic acids or polypeptides means that a polynucleotide or polypeptide comprises a sequence that has at least about 90%, at least about 91%, at least about 92%, at least about 93%, at least about 94%, at least about 95%, at least about 96%, at least about 97%, at least about 98%, or even at least about 99% identical to a parent or reference sequence, or does not include amino acid substitutions, insertions, deletions, or modifications made only to circumvent the present description without adding functionality.
[0056] As used herein, an "expression vector" refers to a DNA construct containing a DNA sequence that encodes a specified polypeptide and is operably linked to a suitable control sequence capable of effecting the expression of the polypeptides in a suitable host. Such control sequences include a promoter to effect transcription, an optional operator sequence to control such transcription, a sequence encoding suitable mRNA ribosome binding sites and sequences which control termination of transcription and translation. The vector may be a plasmid, a phage particle, or simply a potential genomic insert. Once transformed into a suitable host, the vector may replicate and function independently of the host genome, or may, in some instances, integrate into the genome itself.
[0057] The term "recombinant," refers to genetic material (i.e., nucleic acids, the polypeptides they encode, and vectors and cells comprising such polynucleotides) that has been modified to alter its sequence or expression characteristics, such as by mutating the coding sequence to produce an altered polypeptide, fusing the coding sequence to that of another gene, placing a gene under the control of a different promoter, expressing a gene in a heterologous organism, expressing a gene at a decreased or elevated levels, expressing a gene conditionally or constitutively in manner different from its natural expression profile, and the like. Generally recombinant nucleic acids, polypeptides, and cells based thereon, have been manipulated by man such that they are not identical to related nucleic acids, polypeptides, and cells found in nature.
[0058] A "signal sequence" refers to a sequence of amino acids bound to the N-terminal portion of a polypeptide, and which facilitates the secretion of the mature form of the protein from the cell. The mature form of the extracellular protein lacks the signal sequence which is cleaved off during the secretion process.
[0059] The term "selective marker" or "selectable marker" refers to a gene capable of expression in a host cell that allows for ease of selection of those hosts containing an introduced nucleic acid or vector. Examples of selectable markers include but are not limited to antimicrobial substances (e.g. , hygromycin, bleomycin, or chloramphenicol) and/or genes that confer a metabolic advantage, such as a nutritional advantage, on the host cell.
[0060] The term "regulatory element" as used herein refers to a genetic element that controls some aspect of the expression of nucleic acid sequences. For example, a promoter is a regulatory element which facilitates the initiation of transcription of an operably linked coding region. Additional regulatory elements include splicing signals, polyadenylation signals and termination signals.
[0061] As used herein, "host cells" are generally prokaryotic or eukaryotic hosts which are transformed or transfected with vectors constructed using recombinant DNA techniques known in the art. Transformed host cells are capable of either replicating vectors encoding the protein variants or expressing the desired protein variant. In the case of vectors which encode the pre- or pro-form of the protein variant, such variants, when expressed, are typically secreted from the host cell into the host cell medium.
[0062] The term "introduced" in the context of inserting a nucleic acid sequence into a cell, means transformation, transduction or transfection. Means of transformation include protoplast transformation, calcium chloride precipitation, electroporation, naked DNA, and the like as known in the art. (See, Chang and Cohen [1979] Mol. Gen. Genet. 168: 111-115; Smith et al.
[1986] Appl. Env. Microbiol. 51 :634; and the review article by Ferrari et al. , in Harwood,
Bacillus, Plenum Publishing Corporation, pp. 57-72, 1989).
[0063] The terms "selectable marker" or "selectable gene product" as used herein refer to the use of a gene, which encodes an enzymatic activity that confers resistance to an antibiotic or drug upon the cell in which the selectable marker is expressed.
[0064] Other technical and scientific terms have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains (See, e.g. , Singleton and Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d Ed., John Wiley and Sons, NY 1994; and Hale and Marham, The Harper Collins Dictionary of Biology, Harper Perennial, NY 1991).
[0065] The singular terms "a," "an," and "the" include the plural reference unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.
[0066] Headings are provided for convenience and should not be construed as limitations. The description included under one heading may apply to the specification as a whole.
III. SgrLip2 Polypeptides and Polynucleotides
A. SgrLip2 Polypeptides
[0067] In one aspect, the present compositions and methods provide a recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptide or a variant thereof. An exemplary SgrLip2 polypeptide was isolated from
Streptomyces griseus (GENBANK Accession No. YP_001827284). The mature SgrLip2
polypeptide has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3. Similar, substantially identical SgrLip2 polypeptides may occur in nature, e.g. , in other strains or isolates of S. griseus. These and other recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptides are encompassed by the present compositions and methods.
[0068] In some embodiments, the recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptide is a variant SgrLip2 polypeptide having a specified degree of amino acid sequence homology to the exemplified SgrLip2 polypeptide, e.g. , at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, or even at least 99% sequence homology to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 or 3. Homology can be determined by amino acid sequence alignment, e.g. , using a program such as BLAST, ALIGN, or CLUSTAL, as described herein.
[0069] In some embodiments, the recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptide includes substitutions that do not substantially affect the structure and/or function of the polypeptide. Exemplary substitutions are conservative mutations, as summarized in Table I.
Table I. Amino Acid Substitutions
[0070] Substitutions involving naturally occurring amino acids are generally made by mutating a nucleic acid encoding a recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptide, and then expressing the variant polypeptide in an organism. Substitutions involving non-naturally occurring amino acids or chemical modifications to amino acids are generally made by chemically modifying a recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptide after it has been synthesized by an organism.
[0071] In some embodiments, variant recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptides are substantially identical to SEQ ID NO: 3, meaning that they do not include amino acid substitutions, insertions, or deletions that do not significantly affect the structure, function, or expression of the polypeptide. Such variant recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptides include those designed only to circumvent the present description.
[0072] In some embodiments, the recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptide (including a variant thereof) has carboxylic ester hydrolase activity, which includes lipase, esterase, transesterase, and/or acyltransferase activity. Carboxylic ester hydrolase activity can be determined and measured using the assays described herein, or by other assays known in the art. In some embodiments, the recombinant SgrLip2 polypeptide has activity in the presence of a detergent composition.
[0073] SgrLip2 polypeptides include fragments of "full-length" SgrLip2 polypeptides that retain carboxylic ester hydrolase activity. Such fragments preferably retain the active site of the full-length polypeptides but may have deletions of non-critical amino acid residues. The activity of fragments can readily be determined using the assays described, herein, or by other assays known in the art. In some embodiments, the fragments of SgrLip2 polypeptides retain carboxylic ester hydrolase activity in the presence of a detergent composition.
[0074] In some embodiments, the SgrLip2 polypeptide is fused to a signal peptide for directing the extracellular secretion of the SgrLip2 polypeptide. In some embodiments, the SgrLip2 polypeptide is expressed in a heterologous organism, i.e. , an organism other than Bacillus subtilis. Exemplary heterologous organisms are Gram(+) bacteria such as Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus lentus, Bacillus brevis, Geobacillus (formerly Bacillus)
stearothermophilus, Bacillus alkalophilus, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bacillus coagulans, Bacillus circulans, Bacillus lautus, Bacillus megaterium, Bacillus thuringiensis, Streptomyces lividans, or Streptomyces murinus; Gram(-) bacteria such as Escherichia coli:, yeast such as Saccharomyces spp. or Schizosaccharomyces spp., e.g. Saccharomyces cerevisiae; and filamentous fungi such as Aspergillus spp., e.g. , Aspergillus oryzae or Aspergillus niger, and Trichoderma reesei. Methods from transforming nucleic acids into these organisms are well known in the art. A suitable procedure for transformation of Aspergillus host cells is described in EP 238 023.
[0075] In particular embodiments, the SgrLip2 polypeptide is expressed in a heterologous organism as a secreted polypeptide, in which case, the compositions and method encompass a method for expressing a SgrLip2 polypeptide as a secreted polypeptide in a heterologous organism.
B. SgrLip2 Polynucleotides
[0076] Another aspect of the compositions and methods is a polynucleotide that encodes an SgrLip2 polypeptide (including variants and fragments, thereof), provided in the context of an expression vector for directing the expression of an SgrLip2 polypeptide in a heterologous organism, such as those identified, herein. The polynucleotide that encodes an SgrLip2 polypeptide may be operably-linked to regulatory elements (e.g., a promoter, terminator, enhancer, and the like) to assist in expressing the encoded polypeptides.
[0077] An exemplary polynucleotide sequence encoding an SgrLip2 polypeptide has the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1. Similar, including substantially identical,
polynucleotides encoding SgrLip2 polypeptides and variants may occur in nature, e.g. , in other strains or isolates of S. griseus. In view of the degeneracy of the genetic code, it will be appreciated that polynucleotides having different nucleotide sequences may encode the same SgrLip2 polypeptides, variants, or fragments.
[0078] In some embodiments, polynucleotides encoding SgrLip2 polypeptides have a specified degree of amino acid sequence homology to the exemplified polynucleotide encoding an SgrLip2 polypeptide, e.g. , at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, or even at least 99% sequence homology to the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 or 3. Homology can be determined by amino acid sequence alignment, e.g. , using a program such as BLAST, ALIGN, or CLUSTAL, as described herein.
[0079] In some embodiments, the polynucleotide that encodes an SgrLip2 polypeptide is fused in frame behind (i.e. , downstream of) a coding sequence for a signal peptide for directing the extracellular secretion of an SgrLip2 polypeptide. Heterologous signal sequences include those from bacterial cellulase genes. Expression vectors may be provided in a heterologous host cell suitable for expressing an SgrLip2 polypeptide, or suitable for propagating the expression vector prior to introducing it into a suitable host cell.
[0080] In some embodiments, polynucleotides encoding SgrLip2 polypeptides hybridize to the exemplary polynucleotide of SEQ ID NO: 1 (or the complement thereof) under specified hybridization conditions. Exemplary conditions are stringent condition and highly stringent conditions, which are described, herein.
[0081] SgrLip2 polynucleotides may be naturally occurring or synthetic (i.e. , man-made), and may be codon-optimized for expression in a different host, mutated to introduce cloning sites, or otherwise altered to add functionality.
IV. Activities of SgrLip2
[0082] The SgrLip2 polypeptides disclosed herein may have enzymatic activity over a broad range of pH conditions. In certain embodiments the disclosed SgrLip2 polypeptides have enzymatic activity from about pH 4.0 to about pH 11.5. In preferred embodiments, SgrLip2 is active from about pH 8.0 to about pH 10.0. It should be noted that the pH values described herein may vary by + 0.2. For example a pH value of about 8.0 could vary from pH 7.8 to pH 8.2.
[0083] The SgrLip2 polypeptides disclosed herein may have enzymatic activity over a wide range of temperatures, e.g. , from 10°C or lower to about 50°C. In certain embodiments, the optimum temperature range for SgrLip2 lipase is from about 10°C to about 20°C, from about 20°C to about 30°C, from about 30°C to about 40°C, or from about 40°C to about 50°C. It
should be noted that the temperature values described herein may vary by + 0.2°C. For example a temperature of about 10°C could vary from 9.8°C to 10.2°C.
[0084] As shown in Example 3, the activity of SgrLip2 polypeptide was highest using a C8 substrate, but activity was observed using C4 and C16 substrates. In contrast, the commercially produced lipase LIPOMAX™ {Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes lipase variant M21L, Genencor Int. Inc., Palo Alto, CA) had a preference for CIO substrates, with activity falling off rapidly with smaller {e.g., C8) or larger {e.g. , C16) substrates (not shown). Therefore, SgrLip2 polypeptide appears to be less selective that LIPOMAX for substrates of a particular length, while having a preference for substrates with a shorter chain length than LIPOMAX. In fact, SgrLip2 showed hydrolysis activity against an exemplary oily stain material, in the presence of detergent compositions both in solution (Example 4) and when the stain was present on fabric (Example 5).
V. Detergent Compositions Comprising an SgrLip2 Polypeptide
[0085] An aspect of the compositions and methods disclosed herein is a detergent composition comprising an SgrLip2 polypeptide (including variants or fragments, thereof) and methods for using such compositions in cleaning applications. Cleaning applications include, but are not limited to, laundry or textile cleaning, dishwashing (manual and automatic), stain pre-treatment, and the like. Particular applications are those where lipids are a component of the soils or stains to be removed.

The pH of the detergent compositions should be neutral to basic, as described herein.
[0092] In some embodiments incorporating at least one builder, the detergent compositions comprise at least about 1%, from about 3% to about 60% or even from about 5% to about 40% builder by weight of the cleaning composition. Builders may include, but are not limited to, the alkali metals, ammonium and alkanolammonium salts of polyphosphates, alkali metal silicates, alkaline earth and alkali metal carbonates, aluminosilicates, polycarboxylate compounds, ether hydroxypolycarboxylates, copolymers of maleic anhydride with ethylene or vinyl methyl ether, 1, 3, 5-trihydroxy benzene-2, 4, 6-trisulphonic acid, and carboxymethyloxysuccinic acid, the various alkali metals, ammonium and substituted ammonium salts of polyacetic acids such as ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid and nitrilotriacetic acid, as well as polycarboxylates such as mellitic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, oxydisuccinic acid, polymaleic acid, benzene 1,3,5- tricarboxylic acid, carboxymethyloxysuccinic acid, and soluble salts thereof. Indeed, it is contemplated that any suitable builder will find use in various embodiments of the present disclosure.
[0093] In some embodiments, the builders form water-soluble hardness ion complexes (e.g. , sequestering builders), such as citrates and polyphosphates (e.g. , sodium tripolyphosphate and sodium tripolyphospate hexahydrate, potassium tripolyphosphate, and mixed sodium and potassium tripolyphosphate, etc.). It is contemplated that any suitable builder will find use in the present disclosure, including those known in the art (See, e.g. , EP 2 100 949).
[0094] As indicated herein, in some embodiments, the cleaning compositions described herein further comprise adjunct materials including, but not limited to surfactants, builders,

Nos. 6,610,642; 6,605,458; 5,705,464; 5,710,115;
5,698,504; 5,695,679; 5,686,014; and 5,646,101 ; all of which are incorporated herein by reference). Embodiments of specific cleaning composition materials are exemplified in detail below. In embodiments in which the cleaning adjunct materials are not compatible with the
SgrLip2 variants in the cleaning compositions, suitable methods of keeping the cleaning adjunct materials and the lipase(s) separated (i.e., not in contact with each other), until combination of the two components is appropriate, are used. Such separation methods include any suitable method known in the art (e.g. , gelcaps, encapsulation, tablets, physical separation, etc.).
[0095] The cleaning compositions described herein are advantageously employed for example, in laundry applications, hard surface cleaning, dishwashing applications, as well as cosmetic applications such as dentures, teeth, hair, and skin. In addition, due to the unique advantages of increased effectiveness in lower temperature solutions, the SgrLip2 enzymes described herein are ideally suited for laundry applications. Furthermore, the SgrLip2 enzymes may find use in granular and liquid compositions.
[0096] The SgrLip2 polypeptides described herein may also find use cleaning in additive products. In some embodiments, low temperature solution cleaning applications find use. In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides cleaning additive products including at least one disclosed SgrLip2 polypeptide is ideally suited for inclusion in a wash process when additional bleaching effectiveness is desired. Such instances include, but are not limited to low temperature solution cleaning applications. In some embodiments, the additive product is in its simplest form, one or more lipases. In some embodiments, the additive is packaged in dosage form for addition to a cleaning process. In some embodiments, the additive is packaged in dosage form for addition to a cleaning process where a source of peroxygen is employed and increased bleaching effectiveness is desired. Any suitable single dosage unit form finds use with the present disclosure, including but not limited to pills, tablets, gelcaps, or other single dosage units such as pre-measured powders or liquids. In some embodiments, filler(s) or carrier material(s) are included to increase the volume of such compositions. Suitable filler or carrier
materials include, but are not limited to various salts of sulfate, carbonate, and silicate as well as talc, clay, and the like. Suitable filler or carrier materials for liquid compositions include, but are not limited to water or low molecular weight primary and secondary alcohols including polyols and diols. Examples of such alcohols include, but are not limited to methanol, ethanol, propanol, and isopropanol. In some embodiments, the compositions contain from about 5% to about 90% of such materials. Acidic fillers find use to reduce pH. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the cleaning additive includes adjunct ingredients, as described more fully below.
[0097] The present cleaning compositions and cleaning additives require an effective amount of at least one of the SgrLip2 polypeptides described herein, alone or in combination with other lipases and/or additional enzymes. The required level of enzyme is achieved by the addition of one or more disclosed SgrLip2 polypeptide. Typically the present cleaning compositions will comprise at least about 0.0001 weight percent, from about 0.0001 to about 10, from about 0.001 to about 1, or even from about 0.01 to about 0.1 weight percent of at least one of the disclosed SgrLip2 polypeptides.
[0098] The cleaning compositions herein are typically formulated such that, during use in aqueous cleaning operations, the wash water will have a pH of from about 5.0 to about 11.5 or even from about 7.5 to about 10.5. Liquid product formulations are typically formulated to have a neat pH from about 3.0 to about 9.0 or even from about 3.0 to about 5.0. Granular laundry products are typically formulated to have a pH from about 9.0 to about 11.0. Techniques for controlling pH at recommended usage levels include the use of buffers, alkalis, acids, etc., and are well known to those skilled in the art.
[0099] Suitable low pH cleaning compositions typically have a neat pH of from about 3.0 to about 5.0, and are typically free of surfactants that hydrolyze in such a pH environment. Such surfactants include sodium alkyl sulfate surfactants that comprise at least one ethylene oxide moiety or even from about 1 to about 16 moles of ethylene oxide. Such cleaning compositions typically comprise a sufficient amount of a pH modifier, such as sodium hydroxide,
monoethanolamine, or hydrochloric acid, to provide such cleaning composition with a neat pH of from about 3.0 to about 5.0. Such compositions typically comprise at least one acid stable enzyme. In some embodiments, the compositions are liquids, while in other embodiments, they are solids. The pH of such liquid compositions is typically measured as a neat pH. The pH of such solid compositions is measured as a 10% solids solution of said composition wherein the solvent is distilled water. In these embodiments, all pH measurements are taken at 20°C, unless otherwise indicated.
[00100] In some embodiments, when the SgrLip2 polypeptide is employed in a granular composition or liquid, it is desirable for the SgrLip2 polypeptide to be in the form of an encapsulated particle to protect the SgrLip2 polypeptide from other components of the granular composition during storage. In addition, encapsulation is also a means of controlling the availability of the SgrLip2 polypeptide during the cleaning process. In some embodiments, encapsulation enhances the performance of the SgrLip2 polypeptide and/or additional enzymes. In this regard, the SgrLip2 polypeptides of the present disclosure are encapsulated with any suitable encapsulating material known in the art. In some embodiments, the encapsulating material typically encapsulates at least part of the catalyst for the SgrLip2 polypeptides described herein. Typically, the encapsulating material is water-soluble and/or water-dispersible. In some embodiments, the encapsulating material has a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 0°C or higher. Glass transition temperature is described in more detail in the PCT application WO 97/11151. The encapsulating material is typically selected from consisting of carbohydrates, natural or synthetic gums, chitin, chitosan, cellulose and cellulose derivatives, silicates, phosphates, borates, polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, paraffin waxes, and combinations thereof. When the encapsulating material is a carbohydrate, it is typically selected from monosaccharides, oligosaccharides, polysaccharides, and combinations thereof. In some typical embodiments, the encapsulating material is a starch (See, e.g., EP 0 922 499; US 4,977,252; US 5,354,559; and US 5,935,826). In some embodiments, the encapsulating material is a microsphere made from plastic such as thermoplastics, acrylonitrile, methacrylonitrile, polyacrylonitrile, polymethacrylonitrile, and mixtures thereof; commercially available microspheres that find use include, but are not limited to those supplied by EXPANCEL® (Stockviksverken, Sweden), and PM 6545, PM 6550, PM 7220, PM 7228,
EXTENDOSPHERES®, LUXSIL®, Q-CEL®, and SPHERICEL® (PQ Corp., Valley Forge, PA).
[00101] In using detergent compositions that include SgrLip2 in cleaning applications, the fabrics, textiles, dishes, or other surfaces to be cleaned are incubated in the presence of the SgrLip2 detergent composition for a time sufficient to allow SgrLip2 to hydrolyze lipids present in soil or stains, and then typically rinsed with water or another aqueous solvent to remove the SgrLip2 detergent composition along with hydrolyzed lipids.
[00102] As described herein, the SgrLip2 polypeptides find particular use in the cleaning industry, including, but not limited to laundry and dish detergents. These applications place
enzymes under various environmental stresses. The SgrLip2 polypeptides may provide advantages over many currently used enzymes, due to their stability under various conditions.
[00103] Indeed, there are a variety of wash conditions including varying detergent formulations, wash water volumes, wash water temperatures, and lengths of wash time, to which lipases involved in washing are exposed. In addition, detergent formulations used in different geographical areas have different concentrations of their relevant components present in the wash water. For example, European detergents typically have about 4500-5000 ppm of detergent components in the wash water, while Japanese detergents typically have approximately 667 ppm of detergent components in the wash water. In North America, particularly the United States, detergents typically have about 975 ppm of detergent components present in the wash water.
[00104] A low detergent concentration system includes detergents where less than about 800 ppm of the detergent components are present in the wash water. Japanese detergents are typically considered low detergent concentration system as they have approximately 667 ppm of detergent components present in the wash water.
[00105] A medium detergent concentration includes detergents where between about 800 ppm and about 2000 ppm of the detergent components are present in the wash water. North
American detergents are generally considered to be medium detergent concentration systems as they have approximately 975 ppm of detergent components present in the wash water. Brazil typically has approximately 1500 ppm of detergent components present in the wash water.
[00106] A high detergent concentration system includes detergents where greater than about 2000 ppm of the detergent components are present in the wash water. European detergents are generally considered to be high detergent concentration systems as they have approximately 4500-5000 ppm of detergent components in the wash water.
[00107] Latin American detergents are generally high suds phosphate builder detergents and the range of detergents used in Latin America can fall in both the medium and high detergent concentrations as they range from 1500 ppm to 6000 ppm of detergent components in the wash water. As mentioned above, Brazil typically has approximately 1500 ppm of detergent components present in the wash water. However, other high suds phosphate builder detergent geographies, not limited to other Latin American countries, may have high detergent concentration systems up to about 6000 ppm of detergent components present in the wash water.
[00108] In light of the foregoing, it is evident that concentrations of detergent compositions in typical wash solutions throughout the world varies from less than about 800 ppm of detergent composition ("low detergent concentration geographies"), for example about 667 ppm in Japan, to between about 800 ppm to about 2000 ppm ("medium detergent concentration geographies"), for example about 975 ppm in U.S. and about 1500 ppm in Brazil, to greater than about 2000 ppm ("high detergent concentration geographies"), for example about 4500 ppm to about 5000 ppm in Europe and about 6000 ppm in high suds phosphate builder geographies.
[00109] The concentrations of the typical wash solutions are determined empirically. For example, in the U.S., a typical washing machine holds a volume of about 64.4 L of wash solution. Accordingly, in order to obtain a concentration of about 975 ppm of detergent within the wash solution about 62.79 g of detergent composition must be added to the 64.4 L of wash solution. This amount is the typical amount measured into the wash water by the consumer using the measuring cup provided with the detergent.
[00110] As a further example, different geographies use different wash temperatures. The temperature of the wash water in Japan is typically less than that used in Europe. For example, the temperature of the wash water in North America and Japan is typically between about 10 and about 30°C (e.g. , about 20°C), whereas the temperature of wash water in Europe is typically between about 30 and about 60°C (e.g. , about 40°C). However, in the interest of saving energy, many consumers are switching to using cold water washing. In addition, in some further regions, cold water is typically used for laundry, as well as dish washing applications. In some embodiments, the "cold water washing" of the present disclosure utilizes washing at temperatures from about 10°C to about 40°C, or from about 20°C to about 30°C, or from about 15°C to about 25°C, as well as all other combinations within the range of about 15°C to about 35°C, and all ranges within 10°C to 40°C.
[00111] As a further example, different geographies typically have different water hardness.
Water hardness is usually described in terms of the grains per gallon mixed Ca2+/Mg2+.
Hardness is a measure of the amount of calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) in the water.
Most water in the United States is hard, but the degree of hardness varies. Moderately hard (60-
120 ppm) to hard (121-181 ppm) water has 60 to 181 parts per million (parts per million converted to grains per U.S. gallon is ppm # divided by 17.1 equals grains per gallon) of hardness minerals.
Table II. Water Hardness Levels
[00112] European water hardness is typically greater than about 10.5 (for example about 10.5 to about 20.0) grains per gallon mixed Ca2+/Mg2+ (e.g. , about 15 grains per gallon mixed Ca2+/Mg2+). North American water hardness is typically greater than Japanese water hardness, but less than European water hardness. For example, North American water hardness can be between about 3 to about 10 grains, about 3 to about 8 grains or about 6 grains. Japanese water hardness is typically lower than North American water hardness, usually less than about 4, for example about 3 grains per gallon mixed Ca2+/Mg2+.
[00113] Accordingly, in some embodiments, the present disclosure provides SgrLip2 polypeptides that show surprising wash performance in at least one set of wash conditions (e.g., water temperature, water hardness, and/or detergent concentration). In some embodiments, the SgrLip2 polypeptides are comparable in wash performance to other lipases. In some embodiments, the SgrLip2 polypeptides exhibit enhanced wash performance as compared to lipases currently commercially available.

EXAMPLE 1
Cloning and Expression of Streptomyces griseus lipase! (SgrLip2)
[00159] The Streptomyces griseus subsp. Griseus NBRC lipase (SgrLip2) was previously identified (Ohnishi et ah , J Bacteriol, 190:4050-4060, 2008), with the sequence set forth as GENBANK Accession No. YP_001827284. Generation of a synthetic gene (SEQ ID NO: 1) encoding the Streptomyces griseus lipase (SgrLip2) was performed based on a codon selection method for improving expression in Streptomyces lividans. The SgrLip2 synthetic gene was cloned into expression plasmid pKB 128. Briefly, plasmid pKB 128 is a derivative of plasmid pKB 105 (described in US Pat. Publication No. 2006/0154843) and is the source of the A4 promoter-CelA signal sequence. Plasmid pKB 128 contains the Nsil-Mlul-Hpal restriction sites 5 ' -ATGCATACGCGTGTTAAC-3 ' (SEQ ID NO:4) upstream of the BamUl site. The A4 promoter and the CelA truncated signal sequence are fused in front of and the 11 AG3 terminator is fused in back of the SgrLip2 gene sequence.
[00160] The pKB 128-SgrLip2 expression vector was constructed by ligation of pKB 128 after digestion with the restriction enzymes Nhel and BamHI, to a similarly digested SgrLip2 synthetic gene, followed by transformation of E. coli cells. The nucleotide sequence of SgrLip2 gene was confirmed by DNA sequencing. A map of pKB 128-SgrLip2 is shown in Figure 1.
[00161] The nucleotide sequence of the Streptomyces griseus lipase (SgrLip2) synthetic gene used for SgrLip2 expression in Streptomyces lividans is set forth as SEQ ID NO: l :

[00164] pKB128-SgrLip2 plasmid DNA was transformed into protoplast of S. lividans g3s3 (described in US Pat. Publication No. 2006/0154843) using published methods (Kieser et al., Practical Streptomyces Genetics, The John Innes Foundation, Norwich, UK, 2000).
Transformed cells were plated on R5 selection plates and incubated at 30°C for 3 days. Several transformants from the Streptomyces transformation plate were inoculated in TSG medium and cultured in shake flasks at 28°C for 3 days. Cultures were then transferred to a Streptomyces 2 Modified Medium (described in US Pat. Publication No. 2006/0154843) and incubated for an additional 4 days at 28°C. Production culture broth was collected, centrifuged, and used for purification of SgrLip2.
[00165] TSG medium: 16 g BD Difco tryptone, 4 g BD Bacto soytone, 20 g Sigma caseine (hydrolysate), and 10 g potassium phosphate, dibasic, brought to 1 liter. After autoclaving, 50% glucose was added to a final concentration of 1.5%.
[00166] R5 plates: 206 g sucrose, 0.5 g K2S04, 20.24 g MgCl2, 20 g glucose, 0.2 g Difco casamino acids, 10 g Difco yeast extracts, 11.46 g TES, 4 g L-Asp, 4 ml of trace elements, 44 g Difco agar, 20 ml 5% K2HP04, 8 ml 5 M CaCl2 »2H20, and 14 ml 1 N NaOH were added to a final volume of 1 liter after autoclaving. After 20 hours, a layer of thiostrepton (final concentration 50 μg/ml) was plated on the top of the plates.
EXAMPLE 2
Isolation of SgrLip2
[00167] Clarified production culture broth from shake flask fermentation was desalted in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 using a PD-10 desalting column (GE Healthcare, Denmark). A Q
Sepharose High Performance column equilibrated with 20 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0 was used for purification of SgrLip2. The desalted culture broth was loaded onto the column and the column was washed with equilibration buffer after loading. A gradient of 0-0.5 M NaCl in buffer was applied to the column and fractions were collected and assayed using the para-nitrophenyl (pNP) butyrate assay as described below. Fractions containing lipase activity were pooled and concentrated using a Millipore stir cell with a 10K membrane.
EXAMPLE 3
Hydrolysis of /;-Nitrophenyl Esters by SgrLip2
[00168] The SgrLip2 protein was assayed for lipase activity on three different para- nitrophenyl (pNP) ester substrates with varying ester chain lengths to determine the chain length preference of SgrLip2. Table 3-1 provides details of the /?NP ester substrates.
[00169] A reaction emulsion with pNP ester substrates was prepared using 0.8 mM pNP ester pre-suspended in ethanol (5%) in one of two buffers: 0.05 M HEPES, 6 mM CaCl2 adjusted to
pH 8.2, or 0.05 M CAPS, 6 mM CaCl2 adjusted to pH 10.0. To aid in the emulsification of the pNP-esters, 0.5% gum Arabic was added to both buffers.
[00170] The pNP-ester/buffer suspensions were mixed, ultrasonicated for two minutes, and 100 μΐ^ of each was transferred to 96-well microtiter plate wells containing 20 μΐ^ enzyme samples. The generation of liberated /?NP was monitored over a period of 15 minutes by measuring OD at 405 nm and corrected using blank values (no enzyme). The /?NP product generated per minute was recorded and normalized to the added enzyme sample in the well (AOD/min per mg of added enzyme). The relative enzyme activity on the different substrates was calculated, and the rate of product release obtained using each substrate was normalized to the highest activity (e.g., activity on the pNP-caprylate substrate was set to 100).
[00171] As shown in Table 3-2, SgrLip2 shows activity towards pNP-ester substrates from 4 to 16 carbons long, at both 8.2 and 10, with a preferred chain length of 8 carbons.
EXAMPLE 4

Methods
[00177] The detergents were heat-inactivated as follows: the liquid detergents were placed in a water bath at 95 °C for 2 hours while 0.1 g/mL preparations in water of the powder detergents were boiled on a hot plate for 1 hour. Heat treatments inactivated the enzymatic activity of any protein components in commercial detergent formulas while retaining the properties of the non- enzymatic detergent components. Following heating, the detergents were diluted and assayed for lipase enzyme activity.
[00178] Reaction emulsions of trioctanoate and trioleate were prepared from 0.4%
trioctanoate or trioleate pre-suspended in ethanol (5%), in one of 2 buffers: 0.05 M HEPES adjusted to pH 8.2 or 0.05 M CAPS adjusted to pH 10.0. The buffer was adjusted to pH 8.2 for use with liquid detergent, and to pH 10.0 for use with powder detergent. For both buffers, water hardness was adjusted to 6mM CaCl2. Two percent gum Arabic was added to both buffers to aid in the emulsification of the triglyceride.
[00179] Reaction emulsions of trioctanoate in each of the detergents were prepared from 0.4% trioctanoate pre-suspended in ethanol (5%), in one of two buffers: 0.05 M HEPES adjusted to pH 8.2, or 0.05 M CAPS adjusted to pH 10.0. For both buffers, water hardness was adjusted to 240 ppm. The final assay mixtures contained varying amounts of detergents, to aid in the emulsification of the triglyceride.
[00180] The reaction emulsions were made by applying high shear mixing for two minutes (24000 m-1, Ultra Turrax T25, Janke & Kunkel), and then transferring 150 μΕ to 96-well microtiter plate wells already containing 30 μΕ enzyme samples. Free fatty acid generation was
measured using an in vitro enzymatic colorimetric assay for the quantitative determination of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA). This method is specific for free fatty acids, and relies upon the acylation of coenzyme A (CoA) by the fatty acids in the presence of added acyl-CoA synthetase. The acyl-CoA thus produced is oxidized by added acyl-CoA oxidase with generation of hydrogen peroxide, in the presence of peroxidase. This permits the oxidative condensation of 3-methy-N-ethyl-N-(hydroxyethyl)-aniline with 4-aminoantipyrine to form a purple colored adduct, which can be measured colorimetrically. The amount of free fatty acids generated after a 6 minute incubation at 30°C was determined using the materials in a NEFA HR(2) kit (Wako Chemicals GmbH, Germany) by transferring 30 μΐ^ of the hydrolysis solution to 96-well microtiter plate wells already containing 120 μΐ^ NEFA A solution. Incubation for three min at 30°C was followed by addition of 60 μΕ NEFA B solution. After incubation for 4.5 min at 30°C, OD was measured at 520 nm.
[00181] Table 4-1 shows hydrolysis of trioleate and trioctanoate by SgrLip2. Data for triglyceride hydrolysis was determined as μιηοΐ free fatty acid. The results are reported relative to the activity on trioctanoate (C8) in buffer, which was set to 100.
[00182] Table 4-2 shows trioctanoate hydrolysis by SgrLip2 in the presence or absence of various detergents at pH 8.2 and pH 10.0. Data for trioctanoate hydrolysis in the presence of detergent is reported as percent trioctanoate hydrolysis in the presence of detergent relative to trioctanoate hydrolysis in the absence of detergent at both pH values tested.
[00183] SgrLips shows lipase activity in various liquid and powder detergents as a function of detergent concentration.
EXAMPLE 5
Cleaning Performance of SgrLip2
[00184] Cleaning performance of SgrLip2 on stained fabrics was tested in a microswatch assay format. Stain removal experiments were carried out using a lipid-containing technical stain (CS-61 swatches, purchased from Center for Testmaterials, Netherlands) set in a 24-well plate format (Nunc, Denmark). Each assay well was set to contain a pre-cut 13 mm piece of CS- 61 swatch. Swatches were pre-read using a reflectometer (CR-400, Konica Minolta) before placement in the 24-well plate.
[00185] The buffers used were 20 mM HEPES (final concentration) pH 8.2 for testing liquid detergents, and 20 mM CAPS (final concentration) pH 10.0 for testing powder detergents.
Water hardness was adjusted to 240 ppm for both buffers. The commercially available, heat- inactivated detergents used were the same as described in the triglyceride hydrolysis assay of Example 4.
[00186] Briefly, 900 μΕ of the appropriate buffer was added to each swatch-containing well of the 24-well plate. To initiate the reaction, enzyme samples were added at a volume of 100 μΕ into each well. The plates were shaken for 30 minutes at 200 rpm at 37°C. After incubation, the reaction buffer was removed and the fabric in each well was rinsed with 1 mL distilled water three times. After removing the rinsed swatches, the swatches were dried at 50°C for 4 hours before reflectance was measured. Cleaning was calculated as the difference of the post- and pre- cleaning reflectometry measurements for each swatch. Measurement of reflectance was performed by taking CIE L*a*b* measurements with a spectrophotometer (CR-400, Konica Minolta). A difference in stain removal index (ASRI) values of the washed fabric was calculated in relation to the unwashed fabrics using the formula:
Total color difference (ASRI) = (AL2 + Aa2+ Ab2)
[00187] In this equation, AL, Aa, Ab, are differences in CIE L*, CIE a*, and CIE b* values respectively before and after cleaning, where L* defines lightness and a r and b r define chromaticity (See, e.g., Precise Color Communication: Color Control From Perception to Instrumentation, Konica Minolta Sensing, Inc., Osaka, Japan, pp. 32-59, 1998).
