The present invention relates to a novel -1,6-endoglucanase producing gentiobiose or glucose from -glucan, and more specifically, the present invention provides an effect of producing gentiobiose or glucose at high yield through -1,6-endoglucanase showing -1,6-endoglucanase activity on -glucan.

Cleaning compositions comprising endo--1,3-glucanase enzyme and cleaning adjunct. Methods of treating surfaces including fabrics by contacting the surface with an aqueous was liquor having the cleaning composition therein. The compositions and methods are particularly for cleaning cotton fabrics. The compositions and methods are particularly for removal of soils containing callose, curdlan, pachyman, scleroglucan or schizophyllan. The compositions and methods are particularly for improving whiteness of a fabric, improved soil removal from a fabric, for malodour removal from a fabric, for anti-wrinkle benefits and/or for improved drying of a fabric.

Isolated bioactive priming peptides and bioactive priming compostions comprising bioactive priming polypeptides and/or inducer compounds are provided that are useful when applied to plants in agricultural formulations. Methods of using the isolated bioactive priming peptides and/or compositions are also provided which are applied exogenously to the surface of a plant or a plant cell membrane or endogenously to the interior of a plant or to a plant cell. The isolated bioactive priming peptides and/or bioactive priming compositions when applied to a plant, a plant part, or a plant growth medium or a rhizosphere in an area surrounding the plant or the plant part increase growth, yield, health, longevity, productivity, and/or vigor of a plant or a plant part and/or protect the plant or the plant part from disease, and/or increase the innate immune response of the plant or the plant part and/or improve the quality and/or quantity of juice obtained from a plant or plant part.

The present invention relates to an expansin-agarase enzyme complex and a method of degrading agar by using the same. The use of the enzyme complex according to the present invention can efficiently degrade agar obtained from marine biomass, and thus can efficiently provide not only galactose or glucose necessary for ethanol production, but also useful biologically active substances, such as diose, triose, and oligosaccharides.

The invention relates to recombinant microorganisms and methods for producing mogroside compounds and mogroside precursors.

The present invention relates to a method for solubilisation or hydrolysis of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) with an enzyme blend and an enzyme composition for solubilization of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), the enzyme composition comprising a cellulolytic background composition and a protease, lipase and/or beta-glucanase.

A method of preparing a wort with an increased level of free amino nitrogen (FAN) comprising: a) preparing a mash from a grist comprising malt and/or adjunct; and b) adding a protease having at least 80% sequence identity to the polypeptide of SEQ ID NO: 1.

Disclosed herein are embodiments of compositions and combinations that can be used in combination with animal food. In some embodiments, the combinations comprise various compositions that can provide health benefits for animals, such as domestic or companion animals and/or feed animals. The combinations can be used to help maintain and/or promote animal health and well-being, and in some embodiments can help promote an increase in animal longevity.

The present invention relates to a method for selectively producing ginsenoside F2, compound Mc or compound O, which is originally present in ginseng in a trace amount, from a saponin of ginseng, and more specifically to a method capable of obtaining desired target compounds, that is, ginsenoside F2, compound Mc and compound O, in high yields, by treating saponins, obtained from ginseng, with particular enzymes to structurally convert the saponins.

The present invention relates to a method for solubilisation or hydrolysis of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) with an enzyme blend and an enzyme composition for solubilization of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), the enzyme composition comprising a cellulolytic background composition and a protease, lipase and/or beta-glucanase.
