Abstract:
An isolated nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide having lipase activity, selected from the group consisting of:(a) a nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide having an amino acid sequence which has at least 90% identity with amino acids 31 to 349 of SEQ ID NO:2; (b) a nucleic acid sequence having at least 90% homology with nucleotides 1525 to 2530 of SEQ ID NO:1; (c) a nucleic acid sequence which hybridizes under high stringency conditions with (i) nucleotides 1525 to 2530 of SEQ ID NO:1, (ii) the cDNA sequence contained in nucleotides 1525 to 2530 of SEQ ID NO:1, or (iii) a full complementary strand of (i) or (ii); and (c) a subsequence of (a), (b), or (c), encoding a polypeptide fragment that has lipase activity.
