Description: Title: Polypeptide with reduced allergenicity FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to modified polypeptides, such as proteins or enzymes, with reduced allergenicity. Further the invention is directed towards a process for producing said modified polypeptides with reduced allergenicity, and also compositions thereof. Finally the invention relates to uses of said modified polypeptides with reduced allergenicity or compositions thereof. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION An increasing number of polypeptides, including proteins and enzymes, are being produced industrially by microorganisms for use in industry, household, food/feed, cosmetics or medicine etc. Said polypeptides may under certain circumstances inflict a potential risk to especially employees handling the manufac¬ turing of products containing polypeptides, and also to some extent to users of these products, such as hairdressers, and end-users of cosmetic and toiletry products etc. This potential risk need to be controlled and/or limited. Allerαenicitv of polypeptides In general polypeptides are potential antigens toward which the human immune system can produce specific antibodies upon exposure. This process is known as "immunization" when a clinical beneficial response is obtained whereas the term "sensitization" is applied when the response leads to hypersensitivity. During the primary exposure clonal selection and expansion of the specific B-cell clones are initiated, meaning that a protective or allergic response will only be a clinically manifest upon following exposures. The allergic reaction can be defined as an pathological, immune response elicited by otherwise unharmful agents in low concentrations. The process of sensitisation leading to type IV hypersensitiv¬ ity are characterized by the formation of specific IgE anti¬ bodies. At present, the mechanism controlling the subclass shifting are not fully understood. IgE secreted from activated B-cells can attach to Fee receptors located on the surface of mast cells and basophil granulocytes, which contain numerous cytoplasmic granules packed with chemical mediators e.g. histamine (J. Klein, "Immunology", Blackwell Sci. Pub., London, 1990; E. Benjamini & S. Leskowitz, "Immunology", iley-Liss, N.Y. 1991). In atopic individuals each of these cells can have a high number of IgE molecules bound to its surface, where they can remain available to interact with allergens for weeks. Upon contact with an allergen the surface bound IgE crossbinds the allergen, leading to the release of cytoplasmic granules into the proximity of the cell, thereby causing the inflammatoric allergic reaction. The role of IgE has been shown to relate to natural immunologic defence systems towards parasitic worms infections and the development of allergies has been suggested to be an unfortunate by-product of this defence system. The natural allergens causing IgE mediated hypersensitivity can be classified according to their way of exposure: Inhalant allergens (pollens, dust mites etc.) , Ingested allergens (milk, eggs etc.); Contact allergens (e.g. from latex) and allergens from stinging insects (e.g. bees, fire ants etc.). The aero- allergens represents clinically by far the largest group, stressing an area of high potential risk for the industrial polypeptides. Testing for allergy can either be performed as in vivo provoca¬ tion, most commonly skin prick testing of by a number of in vitro assays, primarily based on IgE levels in pheriperal blood. In spite of great efforts in the latter area the most reliable way to diagnose allergy is still the in vivo challeng¬ ing, which again has different levels of sensitivity depending on the selected target organ. For instance, intranasal challenge with allergenic proteins can provoke an allergic response even though skin tests and radioallergosorbent test (RAST) for specific serum IgE are negative (Ivan Roitt, "Essential Immunology", fifth edition, p. 152 and p. 240, 1984) . Reduction of allerαenicitv of polypeptides Presently, the generation of allergic responses to industrial polypeptides are avoided by immobilizing, granulating, coating or dissolving the products, especially to avoid the formation of airborne material. Anyhow, these methods still represent a risk of dust or aerosol formation during handling and process¬ ing, with the subsequent risk of allergic sensitisation. There will anyhow still be a risk of having polypeptide dust or dissolved polypeptide in aerosol form. Therefore some release of enzymes can occur leading to a possible sensitisation and subsequent allergic response. Another way of diminishing the problem has been to select polypeptides of human origin for production, e.g. in bacteria, fungi, yeast, or mammalian cell cultures. This may alleviate some problems for humans, but not for animals. Furthermore, it will in many cases not be possible to find polypeptides of human origin with the desired properties, wherefore other origin has to be considered. This can be either human polypeptides that are altered in one or more positions in the molecule, giving the performance that is desired. It might also be molecules from other species, including bacteria, mold etc. All the latter groups of products will have potency for immune stimulation in mammalians. A further proposition for decreasing allergenicity has been to reduce the size of the protein molecules (see e.g. JP Patent Publication No. 4,112,753, or Research Disclosure No. 335,102). This is, however, a solution that is only available when the activity of the protein is without importance, or in such rare cases, where the activity of the protein is retained in spite of a breakdown of the protein. The application of protein engineering has been suggested to reduce the allergenicity of proteins through epitope mapping and subsequent change of the allergenic epitopes (see WO 92/10755 (Novo Nordisk A/S) . This procedure usually requires a large investment in work and development. In the medicinal field suggestions have been made of diminish¬ ing the immunogenicity of polypeptides through the attachment of polymer molecules to the polypeptide. This usually has the effect of interfering with the interactions of the polypeptide with other macromolecular structures. Such a conjugate may also exhibit novel properties: e.g. EP 38 154 (Beecham Group Ltd.) discloses conjugates of allergens with polysarcosine which have immunosuppressive properties. US patent no. 4,179,337 (Davis et al.) concerns non-immunogenic polypeptides, such as enzymes and peptide hormones coupled to polyethylene glycol (PEG) or polypropylene glycol. Between 10 and 100 moles of polymer are used per mole polypeptide and at least 15% of the physiological activity is maintained. In addition the clearance time in circulation is prolonged, due to the increased size of the PEG-conjugate of the polypeptides in question. The protected polypeptide is injected in an aqueous solution into the mammalian circulatory system or intramuscu¬ lar. The immunogenicity is assessed from intrader al injection tests. US patent no. 4,179,337 concerns therapeutic applications and the retaining of the corresponding physiological activity. In the context of therapeutic applications it is important to limit the risk of inflicting immunological responses caused by exposure of the allergens intradermally, intravenously or subcutaneously. However controlling respiratory allergens are of no importance. Furthermore the relative amount of polymer necessary to conjugate the polypeptides makes the method expensive. WO 93/15189 (Veronese et al.) concerns a method to maintain the activity in polyethylene glycol-modified proteolytic enzymes by linking the proteolytic enzyme to a macromolecularized inhibitor. The conjugates are intended for medical applications It has been found that the attachment of polypeptides to polymers in general has the effect of reducing the activity of the polypeptide or interfering with the interaction between the polypeptide and its substrate. EP 183 503 (Beecham Group PLC) discloses a development of the above concept by providing conjugates comprising pharmaceutically useful proteins linked to at least one water-soluble polymer by means of a reversible linking group. GB patent no. 1,183,257 (Crook et al.) describes chemistry for conjugation of enzymes to polysaccharides via a triazine ring. EP 471 125 (Kanebo, LTD.) describes a modified protease linked to a polysaccharide via a triazine ring leading to a suppress- ing effect on antigenicity and dermal hypersensitivity. The employed polysaccharide has an average molecular weight not less than 10 kDa. The modification rate for surface amino acid groups in the modified protease is not less that 30%. In general it is believed that allergens, entering the respiratory tract, must have a molecular weight below about 100 kDa in order to penetrate the plasma membrane and cause allergic reactions. Folkeson et al., Acta Physiol. Scand, 139, p. 437-354, 1990, showed that there is an inverse relationship between the molecular weight of an instilled protein marker and the transferred amount (bioavailability) via the respiratory tract to the blood stream. WO 94/10191 (Novo Nordisk A/S) discloses a process for produc- tion of low allergenic protein, wherein the monomeric parent protein molecules are linked together to form an oligomer. This is done e.g. by using a linker or spacer molecule or by linking the monomeric molecules together by peptide bonds between the C-terminal of the first monomer and the N-terminal of the second monomer. EP 215 662 (Masda, Hiroshi) concerns a modified or unmodified protease derived from microorganisms for use in medicaments such as anti-tumour agent. It is suggested that the modifica- tion of the protease may be carried out by e.g. coupling with a saccharide, introduction of a hydrophobic polymeric group, conjugation with a low molecular weight anti-tumour agent of a molecular weight less than 2 kDa. Activation of polymers Methods and chemistry for activation of polymers as well as for conjugation of proteins are intensively described in the literature. Commonly used methods for activation of insoluble polymers include activation of functional groups with cyanogen bromide, periodate, glutaraldehyde, biepoxides, epichlorohydrin, divinylsulfone, carbodiimide, sulfonyl halides, trichlorotriazine etc. (see. R.F. Taylor, (1991), "Protein immobilisation. Fundamental and applications", Marcel Dekker, N.Y.; S.S. Wong, (1992), "Chemistry of Protein Conjuga- tion and Crosslinking", CRC Press, Boca Raton; G.T. Hermanson et al., (1993), "Immobilized Affinity Ligand Techniques", Academic Press, N.Y.). Some of the methods concern activation of insoluble polymers but are also applicable to activation of soluble polymers e.g. periodate, trichlorotriazine, sulfonylhalides, divinylsulfone, carbodiimide etc. The func¬ tional groups being amino, hydroxyl, thiol, carboxyl, aldehyde or sulfydryl on the polymer and the chosen attachment group on the protein must be considered in choosing the activation and conjugation chemistry which normally consist of i) activation of polymer, ii) conjugation, and iii) blocking of residual active groups. Several reviews and monographs (Harris, (1985) , JMS-REV. Macronol. Chem. Phys. C25, 325-373; Scouten, (1987), Methods in Enzymology vol. 135, Mosbach, K. , Ed., Academic Press: Orlando, 30-65; Wong et al., (1992), Enzyme Microb. Technol., 14, 866-874; Delgado et al., (1992), Critical Reviews in Therapeutic Drug Carrier Systems, 9, 249-304; Zalipsky, (1995), Bioconjugate Chem., 6, 150-165) have been made concerning the synthesis of activated polyethylene glycols (PEGs) . Methods for activation of polymers can also be found in WO 94/17039, US patent no. 5,324,844, WO 94/18247, WO 94/04193, US patent no. 5,219,564, US patent no. 5,122,614, WO 90/13540 (Enzon) , and US patent no. 5,281,698 (Cetus) , and more WO 93/15189 (Veronese) and for conjugation between activated polymers and enzymes e.g. Coagulation Factor VIII (WO 94/15625) , haemoglobin (WO 94/09027) , oxygen carrying molecule (US patent no. 4,412,989), ribonuclease and superoxide dismutase (Veronese at al., App. Biochem. Biotech., 11, p. 141- 45, 1985). The object of prior art The relevant prior art concern reducing the immunological response or hypersensitivity (allergy) of polypeptides, proteins and/or enzymes in applications for therapeutic pur¬ poses, which is relevant when presenting the allergens intradermally, intravenously or subcutaneously. However prior art do not concern presentation of allergens in industrial applications, which potentially may inflict allergy when inhaled, or in applications, where the end-user may be exposed to polypeptides, for instance, in the use of detergents, cleaning preparations, toiletries and other Personal Care products. It would therefore be desirable to be able to provide polypeptides, proteins and/or enzymes for non-therapeutic industrial applications with a reduced allergic response when inhaled, and which polypeptides substantially maintain their catalytic activity. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present inventors have now surprisingly provided modified polypeptides with reduced allergenicity substantially maintain- ing the catalytic activity. First of all the invention relates to modified polypeptide with reduced allergenicity comprising a parent polypeptide with a molecular weight of between 10 kDa and 100 kDa conjugated to a polymer with a molecular weight in the range of 1 kDa and 60 kDa. In a preferred embodiment of the invention -the polypeptide is a protein or an enzyme. The invention is also directed towards a process for producing said ppolypeptide with reduced allergenicity comprising the step of conjugating from 1 to 30 polymer molecules to a parent polypeptide. Further the invention provides compositions comprising said polypeptide and/or other enzymes/polypeptides and/or ingredi¬ ents normally used in e.g. detergents, including dishwashing detergents and soap bars, household articles, agrochemicals, personal care products, including cleaning preparations e.g. for contact lenses, cosmetics, toiletries, oral and dermal pharmaceuticals, composition for treating textiles, and compositions used for manufacturing food, e.g. for baking, and feed. Finally the invention relates to uses of polypeptides, proteins or enzymes with reduced allergenicity or compositions thereof for a vast number of industrial applications.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present inventors have now surprisingly succeeded in providing modified polypeptides with reduced allergenicity, wherein the catalytic activity is at least substantially maintained. These modified polypeptides with reduced allergenicity accord¬ ing to the invention solve some of the previously mentioned problems that allergens may inflict when inhaled, within a number of non-therapeutic applications. Regarding non-therapeutic applications it must be emphasized that it is mainly inhalation of the allergens that may inflict the risk of allergic responses. Therefore, it is to be understood that one of the crucial advantages of the invention is that the inventors have solved one of the major problems of polypeptides within a vast number of industrial applications, as inhalation, including intratracheal and intranasal presentation of allergens is the main problem in the context of allergenicity. In contrast hereto prior art solutions mainly concern therapeutic applica¬ tions where intradermally, intravenously or subcutaneously presentation of the allergens are the main problem. Further, inhalation of allergens is a much more sensitive question. Normally when discussing production for therapeutic purposes it concerns production of enzymes in kilogram scale, while produc¬ tion for industrial purposes concerns production of many 1000 kilograms. Techniques used for therapeutic purposes can not always advantageously be adapted for industrial purposes. The term "reduced allergenicity" indicates that the amount of produced IgE (in humans, and molecules with comparable effects in specific animals) , which can lead to an allergic state, is decreased when inhaling a modified polypeptides of the inven¬ tion in comparison to the corresponding parent polypeptides. The terms "immunogen", "antigen" and "allergen" are defined below. The term "immunogen" is the wider term and includes "antigen" and "allergen". An "immunogen" may be defined as a substance which when introduced into animals, including humans, is capable of stimulating an immunologic response. The term "antigen" refers to substances . which by themselves are capable of generating antibodies when recognized as a non-self molecule. Further, an "allergen" may be defined as an antigen which may give rise to allergic sensitization or an allergic response by IgE antibodies (in humans, and molecules with comparable effects in animals) . As mentioned above it is, in the context of enzymes including polypeptides for industrial applications, important to distin¬ guish between allergens mediating allergic responses e.g. intradermally, and respiratory allergens causing allergic responses by contact with cell-bound IgE in the respiratory tract, due to the fact that intradermal tests may be negative even though inhalation tests provoke an allergic response. 5 Therefore, assessment of allergenicity may be made by inhala¬ tion tests, comparing the effect of intratracheally (into the trachea) administrated parent polypeptides with the correspon¬ ding modified polypeptide with reduced allergenicity according 10 to the invention. A number of in vitro animal models exist for assessment of the allegenicity of polypeptides. Some of these models give a suitable basis for hazard assessment in man. Suitable models 15 include a guniea pig model and a rat model. These models seek to identify respiratory allergens as a function of elicitation reactions induced in previously sensitised animals. According to these models the alleged allergens are introduced intratracheally into the animals. 20 A suitable strain of guinea pigs, the Dunkin Hartley strain, do not as humans, produce IgE antibodies in connection with the allergic response. However, they produce another type of anti¬ body the IgGIA and IgGIB (see e.g. Prentø, ATLA, 19, p. 8-14, 251991) , which are responsible for their allergenic response to inhaled polypeptides including enzymes. Therefore when using the Dunkin Hartley animal model, the relative amount of IgGIA and IgGIB is a measure of the allergenicity level. 30 A rat strain suitable for intratracheal exposure to polypeptides and enzymes is the Brown Norway strain. The Brown Norway strain produces IgE as the allergic response. In Example 22 the surprising discoveries of the present 35 invention is disclosed showing that the allergenicity of polypeptides, in the specific cases enzymes, can be reduced by increasing the weight of the enzyme by e.g. coupling a number of polymers to the polypeptide molecule. Other animals such as rabbits etc. may also be used for comparable studies. In the first aspect the invention is directed towards modified polypeptides with reduced allergenicity comprising a parent polypeptides with a molecular weight of between 10 kDa and 100 kDa conjugated to a polymer with a molecular weight in the range of 1 kDa and 60 kDa.

Parent Tran fera g Parent transferases (i.e. enzymes classified under the Enzyme Classification number E.C. 2 in accordance with the Recommen¬ dations (1992) of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB) ) include transferases within this group. The parent transferases may be any transferase in the subgroups of transferases: transferases transferring one-carbon groups (E.C. 2.1); transferases transferring aldehyde or residues (E.C 2.2); acyltransferases (E.C. 2.3); glucosyltransferases (E.C. 2.4); transferases transferring alkyl or aryl groups, other that methyl groups (E.C. 2.5); transferases transferring nitrogeneous groups (2.6). In a preferred embodiment the parent transferease is a transglutaminase E.C 2.3.2.13 (Protein-glutamine μ- glutamyltransferase) . Transglutaminases are enzymes capable of catalyzing an acyl transfer reaction in which a gamma-carboxyamide group of a peptide-bound glutamine residue is the acyl donor. Primary amino groups in a variety of compounds may function as acyl acceptors with the subsequent formation of monosubstituted gamma-amides of peptide-bound glutamic acid. When the epsilon- amino group of a lysine residue in a peptide-chain serves as the acyl acceptor, the transferases form intramolecular or intermolecular gamma-glutamyl-epsilon-lyβyl crosslinks. Examples of transglutaminases are described in the pending DK 5 patent application no. 990/94 (Novo Nordisk A/S) . The parent transglutaminase may the of human, aminal (e.g. bovine) or microbially origin. 10 Examples of such parent transglutaminases are animal derived Transglutaminase, FXIIIa; microbial transglutaminases derived from Physarum polycephalum (Klein et al., Journal of Bacteriol¬ ogy, Vol. 174, p. 2599-2605); transglutaminases derived from Streptomyces sp. , including Streptomyces lavendulae, 15 Streptomyces lydicus (former Streptomyces libani) and Strep- toverti cill ium sp. , including Streptoverticil Hum obaraense , Streptoverticillium cinna oneum, and Streptoverticillium griseocarneum (Motoki et al., US 5,156,95&; Andou et al., US 5,252,469; Kaempfer et al., Journal of General Microbiology, 20 Vol. 137, p. 1831-1892; Ochi et al., International Journal of Sytematic Bacteriology, Vol. 44, p. 285-292; Andou et al., US 5,252,469; Williams et al.. Journal of General Microbiology, Vol. 129, p. 1743-1813). 25 It is to be understood that also transferase variants are contemplated as the parent enzyme. The activity of transglutaminases can be determined as described in "Methods of Enzymatic Analysis", third edition, 301984, Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, vol. 1-10. Parent Phvtases Parent phytases are included in the group of enzymes classi ied under the Enzyme Classification number E.C. 3.1.3 (Phosphoric 35 Monoester Hydrolases) in accordance with the Recommendations (1992) of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB)) . Phytases are enzymes produced by microorganisms which catalyse the conversion of phytate to inositol and inorganic phosphorus Phytase producing microorganisms comprise bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis , Bacillus natto and Pseudomonas; yeasts such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae; and fungi such as Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus ticuum, Aspergillus awamori , Aspergillus oryzae, Aspergillus terreus or .Aspergillus nidulans, and various other Aspergillus species) . Examples of parent phytases include phytases selected from those classified under the Enzyme Classification (E.C.) numbers: 3-phytase (3.1.3.8) and 6-phytase (3.1.3.26). The activity of phytases can be determined as described in "Methods of Enzymatic Analysis", third edition, 1984, Verlag Chemie, Weinheim, vol. 1-10, or may be measured according to the method described in EP-A1-0 420 358, Example 2 A. Parent antimicrobial polypeptides Parent anti-microbial polypeptides may be any polypeptides exhibiting anti-microbial activities, such as anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and/or anti-insecticidal activity. Said polypeptides may also exhibit other activities such as enzymatic activity. Examples of parent anti-microbial polypeptides according to the invention include: fungicidally active polypeptides derived from the mold genus Curvularia described in WO 94/01459 (Novo Nordisk A/S) ; anti-bacterial polypeptides described in EP 403.458 (Kabigen AB) ; anti-microbial proteins isolated from the Mirabilis seed, descriped in WO 92/15691 (Imperial Chem Ind. PLC) ; anti-bacterial polypeptides isolated from an extract of pig small intestine, described in WO 92/22578 (Boman et al.); polypeptide with yeast lethal action accumulated by yeast of Hansenula spp. as descriped in JP-60130599; Phytolacca insularis antiviral protein, which can be used as an anti- microbial described in US patent no. 5,348,865 (Jin Ro LTD.); bacteriolytic enzymes preparations derived from Nocardiopsis dassonvillei described in US patent no. 5,354,681 (Novo Industri A/S) . Examples of other anti-microbial polypeptides are maganinin, protegrin, defensin, pseudomycin, mutanolysin and N- acetylmuramidase. Relevant parent polypeptides, proteins or enzymes according to the invention are polypepeptides, proteins or enzymes that may cause allergic reactions. These polypeptides, proteins or enzymes are believed to have a molecular weight between 10 kDa and 100 kDa, preferably between 15 kDa and 80 kDa, or between 20 kDa and 70 kDa, or between 25 kDa and 60 kDa, or between 28 kDa and 55 kDa, or between 30 kDa and 50 kDa. It is within the scope of the present invention to use variants having additional attachment groups, such as amino-groups, in comparison to the parent enzyme. It is advantageous to use such variants as such variants more effectively shield the enzyme towards recognition by the immune system. The polvmer Examples of suitable polymers include polymers selected from the group comprising polyalkylene oxides (PAO) , such as polyalkylene glycols (PAG) , including polyethylene glycols (PEG) , methoxypolyethylene glycols (mPEG) and polypropylen glycols, PEG-glycidyl ethers (Epox-PEG) , PEG- oxycarbonylimidazole (CDI-PEG) , Star-PEGs, Branced PEGs, poly¬ vinyl alcohol (PVA) , poly-carboxylates, poly-(vinylpyrolidone) , poly-D,L-amino acids, dextrans including carboxymethyl- dextrans, celluloses, including methylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, ethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose carboxyethylcellulose and hydroxypropylcellulose, hydrolysates of chitosan, starches such as hydroxyethyl-straches and hydroxypropyl-starcheε, glycogen, agaroses and derivates thereof, guar gum, pullulan, inulin, xanthan gum, carrageenin, pectin, alginic acid hydrolysates and bio-polymers. Star PEGs are multi-armed PEG molecules made by polymerization of ethyl oxide molecules from a crosslinked divinyl benzene core (Gnanou et al., (1988), Makromol. Chem 198, 2885; Rein wt al., (1993), Acta Polymer, 44, 225). Star PEGS and Branced PEGs are available from Shearwater Inc., USA). Epox-PEGs (or PEG-glycidyl ether) are PEGs with an epoxide as the activated coupling group ar the end. They can undergo reactions/attachment with amino-, hydroxyl- and thiol-groups of proteins /Elling and Kula, (1991), Biotech. Appl. Biochem, 13, 354). Epox-PEGs are available from Shearwater Inc., USA, as e.g. methoxy-PEG-epoxides and PEG-(epoxides) 2 . CDI-PEGs (or PEG oxycarbonylimidazole) are PEGs with a carbonylimodazole as the reactive end-group. Said reactive/activated attachment group conjugates with the protein via a urethane linkage (Beauchamp et al., 1993), Anal. Biochem., 131, 125). CDI-PEGs are available from Shearwater Inc., USA, as e.g. methoxy-PEG-CDI and PEG-(CDI) 2 . Examples of such suitable readily available polymer products (of which some are activated polymers) include polyethylene glycols (e.g. from Merck) having an average molecular weight of between about 1 kDa and 35 kDa, metho ypolyethylene glycols (e.g. from Sigma) having an average molecular weight of about 5 kDa and dextrans (e.g. from Fluka) having an average molecu- lar weight of between about 1 kDa and 60 kDa and even higher. Even though all of the above mentioned polymers can be used according to the invention the methoxypolyethylene glycols may advantageously be used. This arise from the fact that methoxyethylene glycols only have one reactive end capable of conjugating with the polypeptide. Consequently, the risk of cross linking is less pronounced. Further, it makes the product more homogeneous and the reaction of the polymer with the polypeptide easier to control. Polymers having a molecular weight (M.) between 1 and 60 kDa may be used according to the invention. Preferred are polymers having a molecular weight (M.) of between 2 kDa and 35 kDa, especially between 2 kDa and 25 kDa, such as about 5 kDa or about 15 kDa. Note that all polymer molecular weights mentioned in this application are average molecular weights. In a preferred embodiment of the invention the polymer is a polyethylene glycol (PEG) , such as a methoxypolyethylene glycol (mPEG) . Activation of polymers If the polymer to be used for conjugating the polypeptide is not active it must be activated by a suitable method. The methods referred in the "Background of the Invention" section are examples of methods which may be used according to the present invention. However, the most suitable method may differ for molecule to molecule dependent on e.g. available attachment groups on the polypeptide chain. In the following further methods of suitable polymer activation methods will be described shortly. However, it is to be understood that also other methods can be used. Coupling polymers to the free acid groups of enzymes can be performed with the aid of diimide and for example amino-PEG or hydrazino-PEG (Pollak et al., (1976), J. Amr. Chem. Soc, 98, 289-291) or diazoacetate/amide (Wong et al., (1992), supra) . Coupling polymers to hydroxy groups are generally very diffi¬ cult as it must be performed in water. Usually hydrolysis predominates over reaction with hydroxyl groups. Coupling polymers to free sulfhydryl groups can be reached with special groups like maleimido or the ort o-pyridyl disulfide. Also vinylsulfone (US patent no. 5,414,135, (1995), Snow et al.) has a preference for sulfhydryl groups but is not as selective as the other mentioned. Accessible arginine residues in the polypeptide chain may be targeted by groups comprising two vicinal carbonyl groups. Technicpies involving coupling electrophilically activated PEGs to the amino groups of lysins can also be useful. Many of the usual leaving groups for alcohols give rise to an amine linkage. For instance, alkyl sulfonates, such as tresylates (Nilsson et al., (1984), Methods in Enzymology vol. 104, Jacoby, W. B. , Ed., Academic Press: Orlando, p. 56-66; Nilsson et al., (1987), Methods in Enzymology vol. 135; Mosbach, K. , Ed.; Academic Press: Orlando, pp. 65-79; Scouten et al., (1987), Methods in Enzymology vol. 135, Mosbach, K. , Ed., Academic Press: Orlando, 1987; pp 79-84; Crossland et al., (1971), J. Amr. Chem. Soc. 1971, 93, pp. 4217-4219), mesylates (Harris, (1985), supra: Harris et al., (1984), J. Polym. Sci. Polym. Chem. Ed. 22, pp 341-352), aryl sulfonates like tosylat- es, and para-nitrobenzene sulfonates can be used. Organic sulfonyl chlorides, e.g. Tresyl chloride, effectively converts hydroxy groups in a number of polymers, e.g. PEG, into good leaving groups (sulfonates) that, when reacted with nucleophiles like amino groups in polypeptides allow stable linkages to be formed between polymer and polypeptide. In addition to high conjugation yields, the reaction conditions are in general mild (neutral or slightly alkaline pH, to avoid denaturation and little or no disruption of activity) , and satisfy the non-destructive requirements to the polypeptide. Tosylate is more reactive than the mesylate but also more unstable decomposing into PEG, dioxane, and sulfonic acid (Zalipsky, (1995) , supra) . Epoxides may also been used for creating amine bonds but are much less reactive than the above mentioned groups. Converting PEG into a chloroformate with phosgene gives rise to carbamate linkages to lysins. This theme can be played in many variants substituting the chlorine with N-hydroxy succinimide (US patent no. 5,122,614, (1992), Zalipsky; Zalipsky et al., (1992), Biotechnol. Appl. Biochem., 15, p. 100-114; Monfardini et al., (1995), Bioconjugate Chem., 6, 62-69, with imidazole (Allen et al., (1991), Carbohydr. Res., 213, pp 309-319), with para-nitrophenol, DMAP (EP 632 082 Al, (1993), Looze, Y.) etc. The derivatives are usually made by reacting the chloroformate with the desired leaving group. All these groups give rise to carbamate linkages to the peptide. Furthermore, isocyanates and isothiocyanates may be employed yielding ureas and thioureas, respectively. Amides may be obtained from PEG acids using the same leaving groups as mentioned above and cyclic imid thrones (US patent no. 5,349,001, (1994), Greenwald et al.). The reactivity of these compounds are very high but may make the hydrolysis to fast. PEG succinate made from reaction with succinic anhydride can also be used. The hereby comprised ester group make the conju¬ gate much more susceptible to hydrolysis (US patent no. 5,122,614, (1992), Zalipsky). This group may be activated with N-hydroxy succinimide. Furthermore, a special linker can be introduced. The oldest being cyanuric chloride (Abuchowski et al., (1977), J. Biol. Chem., 252, 3578-3581; US patent no. 4,179,337, (1979), Davis et al.; Shafer et al., (1986), J. Polym. Sci. Polym. Chem. Ed., 24, 375-378. Coupling of PEG to an aromatic amine followed by diazotation yields a very reactive diazonium salt which in situ can be reacted with a peptide. An amide linkage may also be obtained by reacting an azlactone derivative of PEG (US patent no. 5,321,095, (1994), Greenwald, R. B.) thus introducing an additional amide linkage. As some peptides do not comprise many lysins it may be advan¬ tageous to attach more than one PEG to the same lysine. This can be done e.g. by the use of l,3-diamino-2-propanol. PEGs may also be attached to the amino-groups of the polypeptide with carbamate linkages (WO 95/11924 Greenwald et al.). Lysine residues may also be used as the backbone. According to the invention conjugates of modified polypeptide have a total molecular weight in the range from 50 kDa to 500 kDa, preferably 50 kDa to 400, more preferred 50 kDa to 250 kDa, especially 100 kDa to 250 kDa, such as 80 kDa to 200 kDa. A modified polypeptide according to the invention may demon¬ strate a high degree of stability. For most applications, including Personal Care applications, the modified enzymes may advantageously be irreversible conjugated to the polymer, which entails that the product has only negligible tendency to disintegrate, which would lead to the return of conditions that may cause, an allergenic state. However, in certain other cases it is advantageous that the enzymes stay conjugated to the polymer in the production and/ or bulk handling phase, but disintegrates later on, when the enzyme do not inflict a risk of exposure to humans or animals. The disintegration of the conjugated modified polypeptide of the invention may be activated e.g. by physical conditions, such as pH, ionic strength, temperature, reduction or oxidation potential etc. An example of this is disintegration upon dissolving a detergent formulation. Further, the presence of specific compounds may result in disintegration, e.g. into molecules being less conjugated and/or molecules in the parent form. Especially in the case where the activity of the polypeptide, protein or enzyme is reduced in the conjugated form, disinte¬ gration may be advantageous. The invention also relates to a process for producing polypeptides with reduced allergenicity comprising the step of conjugating the parent polypeptide with from 1 to 30 polymer molecules, preferably 1 to 25, such as 1 to 10 polymer mol¬ ecules. Examples of said polymers which may be used according to the invention are listed above. Preferably between 1 and 25 polymer molecules are conjugated to each polypeptide molecule. This is less than corresponding prior art techniques. Consequently the expense to polymer is reduced. To some extent it entails that the activity of the polypeptide, protein or enzyme is substantially maintained, as it is to be anticipated that the activity vary inversely with the number and the size of polymer conjugated to the polypeptide chain. According to the invention more than 5 . %, in most cases about 20% to 50%, better 50% to 70%, even better between 70% and 80%, up to between 80% and 90% and even up to 100%, of the activity of the polypeptide is maintained. cς>mpQsjti*?n The invention also relates to a composition comprising at least one polypeptide, protein or enzyme of the invention. The composition may further comprise other polypeptides, proteins or enzymes and/or ingredients normally used in e.g. detergents, including soap bars, household articles, agrochemicals, personal care products, such as cleaning preparations e .g. for contact lenses, cosmetics, toiletries, oral and dermal pharmaceuticals, composition use for treating textiles, compositions used for manufacturing food, e.g. baking, and feed etc. Examples of said polypeptides/proteins/enzymes include enzymes exhibiting protease, lipase, oxidoreductase, carbohydrase, transferase, such as transglutaminase, phytase and/or anti- microbial polypeptide activity. These enzymes may be present as conjugates with reduces activity. It is also contemplated according to the invention to combine the use of conjugated enzymes with the same activity having different specificity. Detergent compositions If the polypeptide of the invention is an enzyme it may typically be used in detergent composition. It may be included in the detergent composition in the form of a non-dusting granulate, a stabilized liquid, or a protected enzyme. Non- dusting granulates may be produced, e.g., as disclosed in US 4,106,991 and 4,661,452 (both to Novo Industri A/S) and may optionally be coated by methods known in the art. Examples of waxy coating materials are poly(ethylene oxide) products (polyethylene glycol, PEG) with mean molecular weights of 1000 to 20000; ethoxylated nonylphenols having from 16 to 50 ethylene oxide units; ethoxylated fatty alcohols in which the alcohol contains from 12 to 20 carbon atoms and in which there are 15 to 80 ethylene oxide units; fatty alcohols; fatty acids; and mono- and di- and triglycerides of fatty acids. Examples of film-forming coating materials suitable for application by fluid bed techniques are given in patent GB 1483591. Liquid enzyme preparations may, for instance, be stabilized by adding a polyol such as propylene glycol, a sugar or sugar alcohol, lactic acid or boric acid according to established methods. Other enzyme stabilizers are well known in the art. Protected enzymes may be prepared according to the method disclosed in EP 238,216. The detergent composition may be in any convenient form, e.g. as powder, granules, paste or liquid. A liquid detergent may be aqueous, typically containing up to 70% water and 0-30% organic solvent, or non-aqueous. The detergent composition comprises one or more surfactants, each of which may be anionic, nonionic, cationic, or zwitterionic. The detergent will usually contain 0-50% of anionic surfactant such as linear alkylbenzenesulfonate (LAS) , alpha-olefinsulfonate (AOS) , alkyl sulfate (fatty alcohol sulfate) (AS) , alcohol ethoxysulfate (AEOS or AES) , secondary alkanesulfonates (SAS) , alpha-sulfo fatty acid methyl esters, alkyl- or alkenylsuccinic acid, or soap. It may also contain 0- 40% of nonionic surfactant such as alcohol ethoxylate (AEO or AE) , car oxylated alcohol ethoxylates, nonylphenol ethoxylate, alkylpolyglycoside, alkyldimethylamine oxide, ethoxylated fatty acid monoethanolamide, fatty acid monoethanolamide, or polyhydroxy alkyl fatty acid amide (e.g. as described in WO 92/06154) . The detergent composition may additionally comprise one or more other enzymes, such as e.g. proteases, amylases, lipases, cutinases, cellulases, peroxidases, oxidases, and further anti¬ microbial polypeptides. The detergent may contain 1-65% of a detergent builder or complexing agent such as zeolite, diphosphate, triphosphate, phosphonate, citrate, nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) , ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) , diethylenetri- aminepentaacetic acid (DTMPA) , alkyl- or alkenylsuccinic acid, soluble silicates or layered silicates (e.g. SKS-6 from Hoechst) . The detergent may also be unbuilt, i.e. essentially free of detergent builder. The detergent may comprise one or more polymers. Examples are carboxy ethylcellulose (CMC), poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), polyethyleneglycol (PEG), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) , polycarboxylates such as polyacrylates, maleic/acrylic acid copolymers and lauryl methacrylate/acrylic acid copolymers. The detergent may contain a bleaching system which may comprise a H 2 0 2 source such as perborate or percarbonate which may be combined with a peracid-forming bleach activator such as tetraacetylethylenediamine (TAED) or nonanoyloxyben- zenesulfonate (NOBS) . Alternatively, the bleaching system may comprise peroxyacids of, e.g., the amide, imide, or sulfone type. The detergent composition of the invention comprising the polypeptide of the invention may be stabilized using conven¬ tional stabilizing agents, e.g. a polyol such as propylene glycol or glycerol, a sugar or sugar alcohol, lactic acid, boric acid, or a boric acid derivative such as, e.g., an aromatic borate ester, and the composition may be formulated as described in, e.g., WO 92/19709 and WO 92/19708. The detergent may also contain other conventional detergent ingredients such as, e.g., fabric conditioners including clays, foam boosters, suds suppressors, anti-corrosion agents, soil- suspending agents, anti-soil-redeposition agents, dyes, bactericides, optical brighteners, or perfume. The pH (measured in aqueous solution at use concentration) will usually be neutral or alkaline, e.g. in the range of 7-11.

The detergent may also compris anionic surfactant and/or a bleach system. 25 The enzyme of the invention may be incorporated in concentra tions conventionally employed in detergents. It is at presen contemplated that, in the detergent composition of the in vention, the enzyme in question with reduced allergenicity ma 30 be added in an amount corresponding to 0.001-100 mg of enzyme per liter of wash liquor. Dishwashing composition Further, a modified enzyme according to the invention may als 35 be used in dishwashing detergents. Dishwashing detergent compositions comprise a surfactant which may be anionic, non-ionic, cationic, amphoteric or a mixture of these types. The detergent will contain 0-90% of non-ionic 41 surfactant such as low- to non-foaming ethoxylated propoxylated straight-chain alcohols. The detergent composition may contain detergent builder salts of inorganic and/or organic types. The detergent builders may be subdivided into phosphorus-containing and non-phosphorus- containing types. The detergent composition usually contains 1- 90% of detergent builders. Examples of phosphorus-containing inorganic alkaline detergent builders, when present, include the water-soluble salts especially alkali metal pyrophosphates, orthophosphates, and polyphosphates. An example of phosphorus-containing organic alkaline detergent builder, when present, includes the water- soluble salts of phosphonates. Examples of non-phosphorus- containing inorganic builders, when present, include water- soluble alkali metal carbonates, borates and silicates as well as the various types of water-insoluble crystalline or amor¬ phous alumino silicates of which zeolites are the best-known representatives. Examples of suitable organic builders include the alkali metal, ammonium and substituted ammonium, citrates, succinates, malonates, fatty acid sulphonates, carboxymetoxy succinates, ammonium polyacetates, carboxylates, polycarboxylates, amino- polycarboxylates, polyacetyl carboxylates and polyhy- droxsulphonates. Other suitable organic builders include the higher molecular weight polymers and co-polymers known to have builder prop¬ erties, for example appropriate polyacrylic acid, polymaleic and polyacrylic/polymaleic acid copolymers and their salts. The dishwashing detergent composition may contain bleaching agents of the chlorine/bromine-type or the oxygen-type. Examples of inorganic chlorine/bromine-type bleaches are li¬ thium, sodium or calcium hypochlorite and hypobromite as well as chlorinated trisodium phosphate. Examples of organic chlo- rine/bromine-type bleaches are heterocyclic N-bromo and N- chloro i ides such as trichloroisocyanuric, tribromoiso- cyanuric, dibromoisocyanuric and dichloroisocyanuric acids, and salts thereof with water-solubilizing cations such as potassium and sodium. Hydantoin compounds are also suitable. The oxygen bleaches are preferred, for example in the form of an inorganic persalt, preferably with a bleach precursor or as a peroxy acid compound. Typical examples of suitable peroxy bleach compounds are alkali metal perborates, both tetra- hydrates and monohydrates, alkali metal percarbonates, per- silicates and perphosphates. Preferred activator materials are TAED and glycerol triacetate. The dishwashing detergent composition of the invention may be stabilized using conventional stabilizing agents for the enzyme(s), e.g. a polyol such as e.g. propylene glycol, a sugar or a sugar alcohol, lactic acid, boric acid, or a boric acid derivative, e.g. an aromatic borate ester. The dishwashing detergent composition of the invention may also contain other conventional detergent ingredients, e.g. deflocculant material, filler material, foam depressors, anti- corrosion agents, soil-suspending agents, sequestering agents, anti-soil redeposition agents, dehydrating agents, dyes, bactericides, fluorescers, thickeners and perfumes. Finally, the enzyme of the invention may be used in conventio¬ nal dishwashing detergents, e.g. in any of the detergents described in any of the following patent publications: EP 518719, EP 518720, EP 518721, EP 516553, EP 516554, EP 516555, GB 2200132, DE 3741617, DE 3727911, DE 4212166, DE 4137470, DE 3833047, WO 93/17089, DE 4205071, WO 52/09680, WO 93/18129, WO 93/04153, WO 92/06157, WO 92/08777, EP 429124, WO 93/21299, US 5141664, EP 561452, EP 561446, GB 2234980, WO 93/03129, EP 481547, EP 530870, EP 533239, EP 554943, EP 346137, US 5112518, EP 318204, EP 318279, EP 271155, EP 271156, EP 346136, GB 2228945, CA 2006687, WO 93/25651, EP 530635, EP 414197, US 5240632.

The manganese catalyst may, e.g., be one of the compounds described in "Efficient manganese catalysts for low-temperature bleaching", Nature, 369, (1994), p. 637-639. Examples of readily available products containing protease for detergents include Alcalase®, Esperase®, Savinase® and Durazym® (all available from Novo Nordisk A/S) ; lipases for detergents include Lipolase® and Lipolase™ Ultra (available from Novo Nordisk A/S) ; cellulases for detergents such as Celluzyme®; α- amylases for detergents such as Termamyl®. Personal oare applioatioas The conjugated polypeptide of the invention is also of interest in connection with personal care applications. Proteases Proteases are well-known active ingredients for cleaning of contact lenses. They hydrolyse the proteinaceous soil on the lens and thereby makes it soluble. Removal of the protein soil is essential for the wearing comfort. Proteases are also effective ingredients in skin cleaning products, where they remove the upper layer of dead keratinaseous skin cells and thereby makes the skin look brighter and more fresh. Proteases are also used in oral care products, especially for cleaning of dentures, but also in dentifrices. Further, proteases are used in toiletries, bath and shower products, including shampoos, conditioners, lotions, creams, soap bars, toilet soaps, and liquid soaps. Lipases Lipases can be applied for cosmetic use as active ingredients in skin cleaning products and anti-acne products for removal of excessive skin lipids, and in bath and shower products such as creams and lotions as active ingredients for skin care. Lipases can also be used in hair cleaning products (e.g. shampoos) for effective removal of sebum and other fatty material from the surface of hair. Lipases are also effective ingredients in products for cleaning of contact lenses, where they remove lipid deposits from the lens surface. Pxiapredvictage The most common oxidoreductase for personal care purposes is an oxidase (usually glucose oxidase) with substrate (e.g. glucose) that ensures production of H 2 0 2 , which then will initiate the oxidation of for instance SCN" or I' into antimicrobial reagents (SCNO " or I 2 ) by a peroxidase (usually lactoperoxidase) . This enzymatic complex is known in nature from e.g. milk and saliva. It is being utilised commercially as anti-microbial system in oral care products (mouth rinse, dentifrice, chewing gum) where it also can be combined with an a yloglucosidase to produce the glucose. These systems are also known in cosmetic products for preservation. Anti-microbial systems comprising the combination of an oxidase and a peroxidase are know in the cleaning of contact lenses. Another application of oxidoreductases are oxidative hair dyeing using oxidases, peroxidases and laccases . Free radicals formed on the surface of the skin (and hair) known to be associated with the ageing process of the skin (spoilage of the hair) . The free radicals activate chain reactions that leads to destruction of fatty membranes, collagen, and cells. The application of free radical scavengers such as Superoxide dismutase into cosmetics is well-known (R. L. Goldemberg, DCI, Nov. 93, p. 48-52) . Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is also an oxidoreductase. It can be utilised for waving of hair (reduction and reoxidation of disulfide bonds in hair) and repair of spoiled hair (where the damage is mainly reduction of existing disulfide bonds) . Carbohydrases Plaque formed on the surface of teeth is composed mainly of polysaccharides. They stick to the surface of the teeth and the microorganisms. The polysaccharides are mainly α-1,6 bound glucose (dextran) and α-1,3 bound glucose (mutan). The applica¬ tion of different types of glucanases such as mutanase and dex- tranase helps hydrolysing the sticky matrix of plaque, making it easier to remove by mechanical action. Also other kinds of biofilm for instance the biofilm formed in lens cases can be removed by the action of glucanases. Anti-microbial polypeptides Anti-microbial polypeptides have widespread applications such as for preservation of cosmetic products, anti-acne products, deodorants and shampoos. Further such polypeptides may be use in contact lens products. Food and Feed Further conjugated enzymes or polypeptides with reduced aller¬ genicity according to the invention may advantageously be used in the manufacturing of food and feed. Prptea e The gluten in wheat flour is the essential ingredient respon¬ sible for the ability of flour to be used in baked foodstuffs. Proteolytic enzymes are sometimes needed to modify the gluten phase of the dough, e.g. a hard wheat flour can be softened with a protease. Neutrase® is a commercially available neutral metallo protease that can be used to ensure a uniform dough quality and bread texture, and to improve flavour. The gluten proteins is degraded either moderately or more extensively to peptides, whereby close control is necessary in order to avoid excessive softening of the dough. Proteases are also used for modifying milk protein. To coagulate casein in milk when producing cheese proteases such as rennet or chymosin may be used. In the brewery industry proteases are used for brewing with unmalted cereals and for controlling the nitrogen content. In animal feed products proteases are used so to speak to expand the animals digestion system. Lipases The application of lipase in the baking industry is rather new. Addition of lipase results in improved dough properties and an improved breadmaking quality in terms of larger volume, impro- ved crumb structure and whiter crumb colour. The observed ef¬ fect can be explained by a mechanism where the lipase changes the interaction between gluten and some lipids fragment during dough mixing. This results in an improved gluten network. The flavour development of blue roan cheeses (e.g. Danablue), certain Italian cheese types and other dairy products contain¬ ing butter fat are dependent on the degradation of milk fat into free fatty acids. Lipases may be used for developing flavour in such products. In the oil- and fat producing industry lipases are used e.g. to minimize the amount of undesirable side-products, to modify fats by interesterification, and to synthesis of esters. Oxidoreductases Further oxidoreductases with reduced allergenicity according to the invention may advantageously be used in the manufacturing of food and feed. Several oxidoreductases are used for baking, glucose oxidase, lipoxygenase, peroxidase, catalase and combinations hereof. Traditionally, bakers strengthen gluten by adding ascorbic acid and potassium bromate. Some oxidoreductases can be used to replace bromate in dough systems by oxidation of free sulfydryl units in gluten proteins. Hereby disulphide linkages are formed resulting in stronger, more elastic doughs with greater resistance. Gluzyme™ (Novo Nordisk A/S) is a glucose oxidase preparation with catalase activity that can be used to replace bromate. The dough strengthen is measured as greater resistance to mechan¬ ical shock, better oven spring and larger loaf volume. Carbohydrases Flour has varying content of amylases leading to differences in the baking quality. Addition of amylases can be necessary in order to standardize the flour. Amylases and pentosanases generally provide sugar for the yeast fermentation, improve the bread volume, retard retrogradation, and decrease the staling rate and stickiness that results from pentosan gums. Examples of carbohydrases is given below. Certain maltogenic amylases can be used for prolonging the shelf life of bread for two or more days without causing gumminess in the product. Selectively modifies the gelatinized starch by cleaving from the non-reducing end of the starch molecules, low molecular wight sugars and dextrins. The starch is modified in such a way that retrogradation is less likely to occur. The produced low-molecular-weight sugars improve the baked goods water retention capacity without creating the intermediate-length dextrins that result in gumminess in the finished product. The enzyme is inactivated during bread baking, so it can be considered a processing aid which does not have to be declared on the label. Overdosing of Novamyl can almost be excluded. The bread volume can be improved by fungal α-amylases which further provide good and uniform structure of the bread crumb. Said α-amylases are endoenzymes that produce maltose, dextrins and glucose. Cereal and some bacterial α-amylases are inacti- vated at temperatures above the gelatinization temperature of starch, therefore when added to a wheat dough it results in a low bread volume and a sticky bread interior. Fungamyl has the advantage of being thermolabile and is inactivated just below the gelatinization temperature. Enzyme preparations containing a number of pentosanase and hemi-cellulase activities can improve the handling and stabil¬ ity of the dough, and improves the freshness, the crumb structure and the volume of the bread. By hydrolysing the pentosans fraction in flour, it will lose a great deal of its water-binding capacity, and the water will then be available for starch and gluten. The gluten becomes more pliable and extensible, and the starch gelatinize more easily. Pentosanases can be used in combination with or as an alternative to e ulsifiers. Further carbohydrases are user for producing syrups from starch, which are widely used in soft drinks, sweets, meat products, dairy products, bread products, ice cream, baby food, jam etc. The conversion of starch is normally carried out three steps. First the starch is liquefied, by the use of α-amylases. Maltodextrins, primary consisting of oligosaccharides and dextrins, are obtained. The mixture is then treated with an amyloglucosidase for hydrolysing the oligosaccharides and dextrins into glucose. This way a sweeter product is obtained. If high maltose syrups are desired 3-amylases alone or in combination with a pullulanase (de-branching enzyme) may be used. 56 The glucose mixture can be made even sweeter by isomerizatio to fructose. For this an immobilized glucose isomerase can b used. In the sugar industry, it is common practice to speed up th break down of present starch in cane juices. Thereby the starc content in the raw sugar is reduced and filtration at th refinery facilitated. Furthermore dextranases are used to break down dextran in ra sugar juices and syrups. In the alcohol industry α-amylases is advantageously being use for thinning of starch in distilling mashes. In the brewing industry α-amylases is used for adjunc liquefaction. In the dairy industry β-galactosidases (lactase) is used whe producing low lactose milk for persons suffering from lactos malabsorption. When flavoured milk drinks are produced from lactase-treate milk, the addition of sugar can be reduced without reducing th sweetness of the product. In the production of condensed milk, lactose crystallizatio can be avoided by lactase treatment, and the risk of thickenin caused by casein coagulation in lactose crystals is thu reduced. When producing ice cream made from lactase-treated milk (o whey) no lactose crystals will be formed and the defect, sandiness, will not occur. Further, xylanases are known to be used within a number o food/feed industrial applications as described in WO 94/21785 (Novo Nordisk A/S) . α-amylases are used in the animal feed industry to be added to cereal-containing feed to improve the digestibility of starch. Anti-microbial polypeptides Certain bacteriolytic enzymes may be used e.g. to wash car¬ casses in the meat packing industry (see US patent no. 5,354,681 from Novo Industri A/S) Transferases Transglutaminases with reduced allergenicity according to the invention may advantageously be used in the manufacturing of food and feed. Transglutaminases has the ability to crosslinking protein. This property can be used for gelling of aqueous phases containing proteins. This may be used for when producing of spreads (DK patent application no. 1071/84 from Novo Nordisk A/S). Transglutaminases are being used for improvement of baking quality of flour e.g. by modifying wheat flour to be used in the preparation of cakes with improved properties, such as improved taste, dent, mouth-feel and a higher volume (see JP 1- 110147) . Further producing paste type food material e.g. used as fat substitution in foods as ice cream, toppings, frozen desserts, mayonnaises and low fat spreads (see WO 93/22930 from Novo Nordisk A/S) . Furthermore for preparation of gels for yoghurt, mousses, chee¬ se, puddings, orange juice, from milk and milk-like products, and binding of chopped meat product, improvement of taste and texture of food proteins (see WO 94/21120 and WO 94/21129 from Novo Nordisk A/S) . Phvtases Phytases of the invention may advantageously be used in the manufacturing of food, such as breakfast cereal, cake, sweets, drink, bread or soup etc., and animal feed. Phytases may be used either for exploiting the phosphorus bound in the phytate/phytic acid present in vegetable protein sources or for exploiting the nutritionally important minerals bound in phytic acid complexes. Microbial phytase may be added to feedstuff of monogastric animals in order to avoid supplementing the feed with inorganic phosphorus (see US patent no. 3,297,548) Further phytases may be used in soy processing. Soyabean meal may contain high levels of the anti-nutritional factor phytate which renders this protein source unsuitable for application in baby food and feed for fish, calves and other non-ruminants, since the phytate chelates essential minerals present therein (see EP 0 420 358) . Also for baking purposes phytases may be used. Bread with better quality can be prepared by baking divided pieces of a dough containing wheat flour etc. and phytase (see JP-0- 3076529-A) A high phytase activity koji mold are known to be used for producing refined sake (see JP-0-607074.9-A) . Textile applications Proteases Proteases are used for degumming and sand-washing of silk. Lipases Lipases are used for removing fatty matter containing hydro¬ phobic esters (e.g. triglycerides) during the finishing of textiles (see e.g. WO 93/13256 from Novo Nordisk A/S). Oxidoreductases In bleach clean-up of textiles catalases may serve to remove excess hydrogen peroxide. Carbohydrases Cellulolytic enzymes are widely used in the finishing of denim garments in order to provide a localized variation in the co¬ lour density of the fabric (Enzyme facilitated "stone wash") . Also cellulolytic enzymes find use in the bio-polishing pro¬ cess. Bio-Polishing is a specific treatment of the yarn surface which improves fabric quality with respect to handle and ap¬ pearance without loss of fabric wettability. Bio-polishing may be obtained by applying the method described e.g. in WO 93/20278. During the weaving of textiles, the threads are exposed to con¬ siderable mechanical strain. In order to prevent breaking, they are usually reinforced by coating (sizing) with a gelatinous substance (size) . The most common sizing agent is starch in native or modified form. A uniform and durable finishing can thus be obtained only after removal of the size from the fa¬ bric, the so called desizing. Desizing of fabrics sized with a size containing starch or modified starch is preferably facili- tated by use of amylolytic enzymes. Oral and dermal pharmaceuticals Proteases Different combinations of highly purified proteases (e.g. Trypsin and Chymotrypsin) are used in pharmaceuticals to be taken orally, and dermal pharmaceuticals for combating e.g inflammations, edemata and injuries. Leather production Transferase Transglutaminase is known to be used for casein finishing of leather by acting as a hardening agent (see WO 94/13839 from Novo Nordisk) . Hard surface cleaning Cleaning of hard surfaces e.g. in the food industry is often difficult, as equipment used for producing dairies, meat, sea food products, beverages etc. often have a complicated shape. The use of surfactant compositions in the form gels and foams comprising enzymes have shown to facilitate and improve hard surface cleaning. Enzymes, which advantageously may be added in such surfactant compositions, are in particular proteases, lipases, amylases and cellulases. Such hard surface cleaning compositions comprising enzymes may also advantageously be used in the transport sector, for instance for washing cars and for general vessel wash. Finally the invention relates to the use of the conjugate of the invention or a composition of the invention in products comprising polypeptides. First of all the conjugate or compositions of the invention can advantageously be used for personal care products, such as hair care and hair treatment products. This include products such as shampoo, balsam, hair conditioners, hair waving compositions, hair dyeing compositions, hair tonic, hair liquid, hair cream, shampoo, hair rinse, hair spray. Further contemplated is oral care products such as dentifrice, mouth washes, chewing gum. Also contemplated is skin care products and cosmetics, such as skin cream, skin milk, cleansing cream, cleansing lotion, cleansing milk, cold cream, cream soap, nourishing essence, skin lotion, milky lotion, calamine lotion, hand cream, powder soap, transparent soap, sun oil, sun screen, shaving foam, shaving cream, baby oil lipstick, lip cream, creamy foundation, face powder, powder eye-shadow, powder, foundation, make-up base, essence powder, whitening powder. Also for contact lenses hygiene products the conjugate of the invention can be used advantageously. Such products include contact lenses cleaning and disinfection products. The use for detergents such as washing powder, soap, soap bars, liquid soap are also contemplated.

All solvents used are Merck analytical grade. 4.0 g PEG 35.000 was dissolved in anhydrous dichloromethane (10 ml). Pyridine (0.25 ml) and Tresyl chloride (0.22 ml) was added. Upon stirring for 90 minutes at ambient temperature the obtained yellow mixture was evaporated to dryness and dissolved in hot ethanol (60 ml) and made acidic with HCl. A voluminous white precipitate was obtained upon leaving the mixture overnight at -18 β C in a freezer. The precipitate was recovered by centrifugation at 400 g for 20 minutes and washed repeatedly (6 times) with cold acidic ethanol (60 ml ethanol, 0.5 ml concentrated HCl). The activated PEG-35.000 was recovered by evaporation of solvents until constant weight was obtained of an off-white powder in a yield of 77%. The activated PEG-35.000 was characterised by melting point 59-61°C and NMR analysis indicated 30-35% tresylation. In a scale up synthesis following the above method a yield of 96% with melting point 59-60°C light yellow flakes was obtained. The NMR analysis showed above 40% tresylation. Example 2 Activation of mPEG 15.000 with Tresvl chloride mPEG 15.000 (10.0 g) was dissolved in dichloromethane (anhydrous 35 ml) of which 15 ml was distilled off to remove any trace of water. After cooling triethylamine (900 μl, 10 eqv.) and Tresyl chloride (350 μl, 5 eqv.) was added below the surface. The solution turned light yellow and some triethylamine hydrochloride precipitated. After 90 min the solution was poured into ether (250 ml) in a thin squirt and with stirring. After 3 min. of stirring the light yellow precipitate was filtered, washed with ether (20 ml) and dried to yield 11.3 g NMR showing 80-90% activation and significant amounts of HNEt 3 Cl. This was recrystallised from ethyl acetate (325 ml) with warm filtration to remove most of the salt. After slow cooling to room temperature the suspension was left in the refrigirator for further crystallisation. Yielding 9.3 g (93%) of white crystals.
