Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase), obtained fromIBacillus agaradherensλ(DSM 9948) and detergents and cleaning agents containing said novel cyclodextrin glucanotransferase

摘要

The invention relates to a novel enzyme obtained from Bacillus agaradherens (DSM 9948), which can be regarded as cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase) and also as α-amylase. The invention also relates to sufficiently similar proteins or derivatives that exhibit amylolytic and/or CGTase activity, to the corresponding nucleic acids and micro-organisms that produce said proteins and derivatives, to methods for the production of said proteins and to diverse uses of the same. In addition, said proteins can be further developed for other, predominantly technical purposes. The invention relates in particular to detergents and cleaning agents containing CGTase of this type, to methods for cleaning textiles or hard surfaces using CGTase of this type or corresponding agents and to the use thereof for cleaning textiles or hard surfaces.
