Subtilisin protease variants having amino acid substitutions in defined epitope regions

摘要

The present invention relates to variants of subtilisin-like proteases having decreased immunogenicity relative to their corresponding wild-type proteases. More particularly, the present invention relates to variants having a modified amino acid sequence of a wild-type amino acid sequence, wherein the modified amino acid sequence comprises a substitution of one or more epitope regions. The invention further relates to mutant genes encoding such variants and cleaning and personal care compositions comprising such variants.
