NOVEL FUNGAL PROTEASES

摘要

This invention relates to novel enzymes and novel methods for producing the same. More specifically this invention relates to a variety of fungal enzymes. Nucleic acid molecules encoding such enzymes, compositions, recombinant and genetically modified host cells, and methods of use are described. The invention also relates to a method to the degradation of protein and novel combinations of enzymes, including those that provide a synergistic release of amino acids or lower molecular weight proteins. The invention also relates to methods to use the novel enzymes and compositions of such enzymes in a variety of other processes, including washing or treating of clothing or fabrics, detergent processes, cleaning of carpets, leather treatment, animal feed, food processing, baking, increasing the protein yield of food, modification of food taste, processing of proteins in protein production, processing of beverages, medical treatment, and cosmetic treatment, and bio fuels.
