Claim Text:
1. A method to degrade a raw carbohydrate which method comprises treating the raw carbohydrate with an effective amount of a protein selected from the group consisting of proteins having the following amino acid sequences a protein having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:50 having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:51, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:52, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:53, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:55, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:56, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:57, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:58, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:59, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:60, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:61, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:62, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:63, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:64, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:65, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:66, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:67, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:68, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:69, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:70, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:71, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:72, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:73, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:74, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:75, having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:76, and a protein having a sequence that has an identity of more than 95% with any of said amino acid sequences that retains lignocellulose and/or hemicellulose degrading activity, whereby the raw carbohydrate is degraded, wherein the raw carbohydrate comprises lignocellulose and/or hemicellulose.
