FUNGAL ENDOGLUCANASE VARIANTS, THEIR PRODUCTION AND USE

摘要

The invention relates to novel variants of fungal endoglucanases, their production and means for their production. Especially the invention relates to variants of Acremonium thermophilum Cel45A. The invention further relates to enzyme preparations and detergent compositions comprising at least one novel variant endoglucanase as well as to processes for treating cellulosic material therewith. The novel variant endoglucanase polypeptides have improved performance in textile applications, especially in biofinishing and biostoning, and in detergent applications, in fabric care and color maintenance, especially in prevention and removal of fuzz and pills, in color care and revival.
