Description:
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION(S) 
     This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application 61/067,720 filed 29 Feb. 2008. 
    
    
     FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
     The present invention relates to lipolytic enzyme variants with improved in-detergent stability and to a method of preparing them. It particularly relates to lipolytic enzyme variants of the  Thermomyces lanuginosus  lipase. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     It is known to use fungal lipolytic enzymes, e.g. the lipase from  Thermomyces lanuginosus  (synonym  Humicola lanuginosa ), for various industrial purposes, e.g. to improve the efficiency of detergents. Thus, a lipase derived from  Thermomyces lanuginosus  (synonym  Humicola lanuginosa,  EP 258 068 and EP 305 216) is sold for detergent use under the trade name Lipolase® (product of Novozymes A/S). WO 0060063 describes variants of the  T. lanuginosus  lipase with a particularly good first-wash performance in a detergent solution. In addition to the use of lipases as detergent enzymes to remove lipid or fatty stains from clothes and other textiles, they are also used as additives to dough for bread and other baked products, and in the elimination of pitch problems in pulp and paper production. In some applications, a lipolytic enzyme with improved thermostability is desirable (EP 374700, WO 9213130), whereas in other applications an in-detergent stability is desirable. WO 92/05249, WO 92/19726 and WO 97/07202 disclose variants of the  T. lanuginosus  ( H. lanuginosa ) lipase. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     In a first aspect, the invention relates to a detergent composition comprising a variant of a parent lipolytic enzyme, wherein the variant: (a) has an amino acid sequence which compared to the parent lipolytic enzyme comprises substitution of an amino acid residue corresponding to any of amino acids 27, 216, 227, 231, 233 and 256 of SEQ ID NO: 2; and (b) optionally is more in-detergent stable than the parent lipolytic enzyme. 
     In further aspects, the invention relates to use of the composition in the hydrolysis of a carboxylic acid ester or in the hydrolysis, synthesis or interesterification of an ester. 
     In a further aspect, the invention relates to use of the lipolytic enzyme variant for the manufacture of an in-detergent stable formulation.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     Nomenclature for Amino Acid Modifications 
     In describing lipase variants according to the invention, the following nomenclature is used for ease of reference: 
     Original Amino Acid(s):Position(s):Substituted Amino Acid(s) 
     According to this nomenclature, for instance the substitution of glutamic acid for glycine in position 195 is shown as G195E. A deletion of glycine in the same position is shown as G195*, and insertion of an additional amino acid residue such as lysine is shown as G195GK. Where a specific lipase contains a “deletion” in comparison with other lipases and an insertion is made in such a position this is indicated as *36D for insertion of an aspartic acid in position 36. 
     Multiple mutations are separated by pluses, i.e.: R170Y+G195E, representing mutations in positions 170 and 195 substituting tyrosine and glutamic acid for arginine and glycine, respectively. 
     X231 indicates the amino acid in a parent lipolytic enzyme corresponding to position 231, when applying the described alignment procedure. X231R indicates that the amino acid is replaced with R. For SEQ ID NO: 2 X is T, and X231R thus indicates a substitution of T in position 231 with R. Where the amino acid in a position (e.g. 231) may be substituted by another amino acid selected from a group of amino acids, e.g. the group consisting of R and P and Y, this will be indicated by X231R/P/Y. 
     In all cases, the accepted IUPAC single letter or triple letter amino acid abbreviation is employed. 
     Identity: The term “identity” as used herein means the relatedness between two amino acid sequences or between two nucleotide sequences is described by the parameter “identity”. 
     For purposes of the present invention, the alignment of two amino acid sequences is determined by using the Needle program from the EMBOSS package (http://emboss.org) version 2.8.0. The Needle program implements the global alignment algorithm described in Needleman, S. B. and Wunsch, C. D. (1970) J. Mol. Biol. 48, 443-453. The substitution matrix used is BLOSUM62, gap opening penalty is 10, and gap extension penalty is 0.5. 
     The degree of identity between an amino acid sequence of the present invention (“invention sequence”; e.g. amino acids 1 to 269 of SEQ ID NO: 2) and a different amino acid sequence (“foreign sequence”) is calculated as the number of exact matches in an alignment of the two sequences, divided by the length of the “invention sequence” or the length of the “foreign sequence”, whichever is the shortest. The result is expressed in percent identity. 
     An exact match occurs when the “invention sequence” and the “foreign sequence” have identical amino acid residues in the same positions of the overlap. The length of a sequence is the number of amino acid residues in the sequence (e.g. the length of SEQ ID NO: 2 are 269). 
     The above procedure may be used for calculation of identity as well as homology and for alignment. In the context of the present invention homology and alignment has been calculated as described below. 
     Homology and Alignment 
     For purposes of the present invention, the degree of homology may be suitably determined by means of computer programs known in the art, such as GAP provided in the GCG program package (Program Manual for the Wisconsin Package, Version 8, August 1994, Genetics Computer Group, 575 Science Drive, Madison, Wis., USA 53711) (Needleman, S. B. and Wunsch, C. D., (1970), Journal of Molecular Biology, 48, 443-45), using GAP with the following settings for polypeptide sequence comparison: GAP creation penalty of 3.0 and GAP extension penalty of 0.1. 
     In the present invention, corresponding (or homologous) positions in the lipase sequences of  Absidia reflexa, Absidia corymbefera, Rhizmucor miehei, Rhizopus delemar, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus tubigensis, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium heterosporum, Aspergillus oryzea, Penicilium camembertii, Aspergillus foetidus, Aspergillus niger, Thermomyces lanoginosus  ( synonym: Humicola lanuginose ) and  Landerina penisapora  are defined by the alignment shown in  FIG. 1 . 
     To find the homologous positions in lipase sequences not shown in the alignment, the sequence of interest is aligned to the sequences shown in  FIG. 1 . The new sequence is aligned to the present alignment in  FIG. 1  by using the GAP alignment to the most homologous sequence found by the GAP program. GAP is provided in the GCG program package (Program Manual for the Wisconsin Package, Version 8, August 1994, Genetics Computer Group, 575 Science Drive, Madison, Wis., USA 53711) (Needleman, S. B. and Wunsch, C. D., (1970), Journal of Molecular Biology, 48, 443-45). The following settings are used for polypeptide sequence comparison: GAP creation penalty of 3.0 and GAP extension penalty of 0.1. 
     Parent Lipases 
     Any suitable lipolytic enzyme may be used as a parent lipolytic enzyme also termed parent lipase. In some embodiments the lipolytic enzyme may be a fungal lipolytic enzyme. 
     The lipolytic enzyme may be a yeast lipolytic enzyme originating from genera such as a  Candida, Kluyveromyces, Pichia, Saccharomyces, Schizosaccharomyces,  or  Yarrowia;  or more preferably a filamentous fungal lipolytic enzyme originating from genera such as a  Acremonium, Aspergillus, Aureobasidium, Cryptococcus, Filobasidium, Fusarium, Humicola, Magnaporthe, Mucor, Myceliophthora, Neocallimastix, Neurospora, Paecilomyces, Penicillium, Piromyces, Schizophyllum, Talaromyces, Thermoascus, Thielavia, Tolypocladium, Thermomyces  or  Trichoderma.    
     The lipolytic enzyme may furthermore be a  Saccharomyces carlsbergensis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomyces diastaticus, Saccharomyces douglasii, Saccharomyces kluyveri, Saccharomyces norbensis,  or  Saccharomyces oviformis  lipolytic enzyme. 
     Alternatively, the lipolytic enzyme is an  Aspergillus aculeatus, Aspergillus awamori, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus foetidus, Aspergillus japonicus, Aspergillus nidulans, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae, Aspergillus turbigensis, Fusarium bactridioides, Fusarium cerealis, Fusarium crookwellense, Fusarium culmorum, Fusarium graminearum, Fusarium graminum, Fusarium heterosporum, Fusarium negundi, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium reticulatum, Fusarium roseum, Fusarium sambucinum, Fusarium sarcochroum, Fusarium sporotrichioides, Fusarium sulphureum, Fusarium torulosum, Fusarium trichothecioides, Fusarium venenatum, Humicola insolens, Thermomyces lanoginosus  ( synonym: Humicola lanuginose ),  Mucor miehei, Myceliophthora thermophila, Neurospora crassa, Penicillium purpurogenum, Trichoderma harzianum, Trichoderma koningii, Trichoderma longibrachiatum, Trichoderma reesei,  or  Trichoderma viride  lipolytic enzyme. 
     In some embodiments the invention relates to a lipolytic enzyme variant which is a  Thermomyces lipase  or a  Thermomyces lanuginosus lipase.    
     In some embodiments the invention relates to a lipolytic enzyme variant, wherein the variant is at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99% or 100% identical to SEQ ID NO:2. 
     Alterations in Lipolytic Enzyme Variants Having Improved In-Detergent Stability. 
     The positions referred to below are the positions of the amino acid residues in SEQ ID NO: 2. In the paragraph “Homology and alignment” a procedure of how to find the corresponding or homologous position of the amino acid residue in a different lipase is described. 
     The lipolytic enzyme variants, lipolytic variants, or in short variants, have according to the present invention surprisingly been found to be more in-detergent stable than the parent lipolytic enzyme. In-detergent stability is defined as the quality of retaining the lipolytic/lipase activity in the presence of detergent. The lipase activity may be fully or partly retained. Thus, variants of the invention show an improved ability to retain, either fully or partly, their lipase activity in the presence of detergent in comparison with parent lipases from which they are derived. 
     The term “lipase activity” as used herein means a carboxylic ester hydrolase activity which catalyses the hydrolysis of triacylglycerol under the formation of diacylglycerol and a carboxylate. For the purpose of the present invention, lipase activity is determined according to the following procedure: A substrate for lipase is prepared by emulsifying tributyrin (glycerin tributyrate) using gum Arabic as emulsifier. The hydrolysis of tributyrin at 30° C. at pH 7 or 9 is followed in a pH-stat titration experiment. One unit of lipase activity (1 LU) is defined as the amount of enzyme capable of releasing 1 micro mol of butyric acid per minute at 30° C., pH 7. 
     In some embodiments the variants according to the invention have been compared with a reference enzyme. The term “reference enzyme” or “reference lipase” as used herein means the mature part of SEQ ID NO: 2 with the substitutions T231R+N233R unless otherwise stated. 
     In some embodiments the invention relates to a variant of a parent lipolytic enzyme, wherein the variant: (a) has an amino acid sequence which compared to the parent lipolytic enzyme comprises substitution of an amino acid residue corresponding to any of amino acids 27, 216, 227, 231, 233 and 256 of SEQ ID NO: 2; and (b) is more in-detergent stable than the parent lipolytic enzyme.

     In some embodiments the invention relates to a variant of a parent lipolytic enzyme, wherein the variant having alterations of the amino acids at the positions 231+233 and one of: (a) 27; (b) 216; or (c) 256; optionally said variant furthermore comprises 227; which positions are corresponding to SEQ ID NO: 2. 
     In some embodiments the invention relates to a variant wherein the substitution of an amino acid residue is one of 27R, 216P, 227G, 231R, 233R or 256K of SEQ ID NO: 2. 
     In some embodiments the invention relates to a variant, wherein the substitution of an amino acid residue is one of D27R, S216P, L227G, T231R, N233R or P256K of SEQ ID NO: 2.

     In some embodiments the invention relates to a variant, wherein the parent lipolytic enzyme is at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 91%, at least 92%, at least 93%, at least 94%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98%, at least 99%, or 100% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2. 
     In some embodiments the invention relates to a variant, wherein the parent lipolytic enzyme is a lipase produced by Thermomyces lanuginosus DSM 4109 and having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID. NO: 2.

     In some embodiments the invention relates to a formulation, wherein said formulation may be a liquid formulation. 
     Polynucleotides, Expression vector, Host cell, Production of lipolytic enzyme variants. 
     In some embodiments the invention relates to an isolated polynucleotide encoding the lipolytic enzyme variants. Polynucleotides may hybridize under very low stringency conditions, preferably low stringency conditions, more preferably medium stringency conditions, more preferably medium-high stringency conditions, even more preferably high stringency conditions, and most preferably very high stringency conditions with (i) nucleotides 178 to 660 of SEQ ID NO: 1, (ii) the cDNA sequence contained in nucleotides 178 to 660 of SEQ ID NO: 1, (iii) a subsequence of (i) or (ii), or (iv) a complementary strand of (i), (ii), or (iii) (J.

A subsequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 contains at least 100 contiguous nucleotides or preferably at least 200 contiguous nucleotides. Moreover, the subsequence may encode a polypeptide fragment which has lipase activity. 
     For long probes of at least 100 nucleotides in length, very low to very high stringency conditions are defined as pre-hybridization and hybridization at 42° C. in 5×SSPE, 0.3% SDS, 200 ug/ml sheared and denatured salmon sperm DNA, and either 25% formamide for very low and low stringencies, 35% formamide for medium and medium-high stringencies, or 50% formamide for high and very high stringencies, following standard Southern blotting procedures for 12 to 24 hours optimally. 
     For long probes of at least 100 nucleotides in length, the carrier material is finally washed three times each for 15 minutes using 2×SSC, 0.2% SDS preferably at least at 45° C. (very low stringency), more preferably at least at 50° C. (low stringency), more preferably at least at 55° C. (medium stringency), more preferably at least at 60° C. (medium-high stringency), even more preferably at least at 65° C. (high stringency), and most preferably at least at 70° C. (very high stringency). 
     The isolated polynucleotide encoding the lipolytic enzyme variant, the nucleic acid construct comprising the polynucleotide, the recombinant expression vector comprising the nucleic acid construct, and the transformed host cell comprising the nucleic acid construct or the recombinant expression vector may all be obtained by methods known in the art. 
     Procedure for Obtaining In-Detergent Stable Lipolytic Enzyme Variants 
     Variants of lipolytic enzymes may be obtained by methods known in the art, such as site-directed mutagenesis, random mutagenesis or localized mutagenesis, e.g. as described in WO 9522615 or WO 0032758. In-detergent stable variants of a given parent lipolytic enzyme may be obtained by the following standard procedure: 
     Mutagenesis (error-prone, doped oligo, spiked oligo) 
     Primary Screening 
     Identification of more in-detergent stable mutants 
     Maintenance (glycerol culture, LB-Amp plates, Mini-Prep) 
     Streaking out on another assay plate - secondary screening 
     (1 degree higher then primary screening) 
     DNA Sequencing

     A solution of 0.2% of the blue substrate is suspended in a 0.1M phosphate buffer pH 7.5, 20° C. under stirring in a 1.5 ml Eppendorf tubes (0.75 ml to each), 50 microlitres enzyme solution is added and they are incubated in an Eppendorf Thermomixer for 20 minutes at 40° C., with a mixing of 1200 rpm. After incubation the coloured solution is separated from the solid by 4 minutes centrifugation at 14,000 rpm and the absorbance of the supernatant is measured at 600 nm in a 1 cm cuvette using a spectrophotometer. One XyloU unit is defined as the amount of enzyme resulting in an absorbance of 0.24 in a 1 cm cuvette at 600 nm. 
     Only absorbance values between 0.1 and 0.8 are used to calculate the XyloU activity. If an absorbance value is measured outside this range, optimization of the starting enzyme concentration should be carried out accordingly. 
     Glycosyl Hydrolase Activity Towards Amorphous Cellulose Substrates 
     An enzyme is deemed to have activity towards amorphous cellulose if the pure enzyme has a specific activity of greater than 20000 EBG/g according to the following assay at pH 7.5. Chemicals used as buffers and substrates were commercial products of at least reagent grade. 
     Endoglucanase Activity Assay Materials: 
     0.1M phosphate buffer pH 7.5 
     Cellazyme C tablets, supplied by Megazyme International, Ireland. 
     Glass microfiber filters, GF/C, 9 cm diameter, supplied by Whatman. 
     Method: 
     In test tubes, mix 1 ml pH 7,5 buffer and 5 ml deionised water. 
     Add 100 microliter of the enzyme sample (or of dilutions of the enzyme sample with known weight:weight dilution factor). Add 1 Cellazyme C tablet into each tube, cap the tubes and mix on a vortex mixer for 10 seconds. Place the tubes in a thermostated water bath, temperature 40° C. After 15, 30 and 45 minutes, mix the contents of the tubes by inverting the tubes, and replace in the water bath. After 60 minutes, mix the contents of the tubes by inversion and then filter through a GF/C filter. Collect the filtrate in a clean tube. 
     Measure Absorbance (Aenz) at 590 nm, with a spectrophotometer. A blank value, A water, is determined by adding 100 μl water instead of 100 microliter enzyme dilution. 
     Calculate Adelta=Aenz−Awater. 
     Adelta must be &lt;0.5. If higher results are obtained, repeat with a different enzyme dilution factor. 
     Determine DFO.1, where DFO.1 is the dilution factor needed to give Adelta=0.1. 
     Unit Definition: 1 Endo-Beta-Glucanase activity unit (1 EBG) is the amount of enzyme that gives Adelta=0.10, under the assay conditions specified above. Thus, for example, if a given enzyme sample, after dilution by a dilution factor of 100, gives Adelta=0.10, then the enzyme sample has an activity of 100 EBG/g. 
     Amphiphilic alkoxylated grease cleaning polymer—Amphiphilic alkoxylated grease cleaning polymers of the present invention refer to any alkoxylated polymers having balanced hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties such that they remove grease particles from fabrics and surfaces. Specific embodiments of the amphiphilic alkoxylated grease cleaning polymers of the present invention comprise a core structure and a plurality of alkoxylate groups attached to that core structure. 
     The core structure may comprise a polyalkylenimine structure comprising, in condensed form, repeating units of formulae (I), (II), (III) and (IV): 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein # in each case denotes one-half of a bond between a nitrogen atom and the free binding position of a group A 1  of two adjacent repeating units of formulae (I), (II), (III) or (IV); * in each case denotes one-half of a bond to one of the alkoxylate groups; and A 1  is independently selected from linear or branched C 2 -C 6 -alkylene; wherein the polyalkylenimine structure consists of 1 repeating unit of formula (I), x repeating units of formula (II), y repeating units of formula (III) and y+1 repeating units of formula (IV), wherein x and y in each case have a value in the range of from 0 to about 150; where the average weight average molecular weight, Mw, of the polyalkylenimine core structure is a value in the range of from about 60 to about 10,000 g/mol. 
     The core structure may alternatively comprise a polyalkanolamine structure of the condensation products of at least one compound selected from N-(hydroxyalkyl)amines of formulae (I.a) and/or (I.b), 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein A are independently selected from C 1 -C 6 -alkylene; R 1 , R 1 *, R 2 , R 2 *, R 3 , R 3 *, R 4 , R 4 *, R 5  and R 5 * are independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl or aryl, wherein the last three mentioned radicals may be optionally substituted; and R 6  is selected from hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl or aryl, wherein the last three mentioned radicals may be optionally substituted. 
     The plurality of alkylenoxy groups attached to the core structure are independently selected from alkylenoxy units of the formula (V) 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein * in each case denotes one-half of a bond to the nitrogen atom of the repeating unit of formula (I), (II) or (IV); A 2  is in each case independently selected from 1,2-propylene, 1,2-butylene and 1,2-isobutylene; A 3  is 1,2-propylene; R is in each case independently selected from hydrogen and C 1 -C 4 -alkyl; m has an average value in the range of from 0 to about 2; n has an average value in the range of from about 20 to about 50; and p has an average value in the range of from about 10 to about 50. 
     Specific embodiments of the amphiphilic alkoxylated grease cleaning polymers may be selected from alkoxylated polyalkylenimines having an inner polyethylene oxide block and an outer polypropylene oxide block, the degree of ethoxylation and the degree of propoxylation not going above or below specific limiting values. Specific embodiments of the alkoxylated polyalkylenimines according to the present invention have a minimum ratio of polyethylene blocks to polypropylene blocks (n/p) of about 0.6 and a maximum of about 1.5(x+2y+1) 1/2 . Alkoxykated polyalkyenimines having an n/p ratio of from about 0.8 to about 1.2(x+2y+1) 1/2  have been found to have especially beneficial properties. 
     The alkoxylated polyalkylenimines according to the present invention have a backbone which consists of primary, secondary and tertiary amine nitrogen atoms which are attached to one another by alkylene radicals A and are randomly arranged. Primary amino moieties which start or terminate the main chain and the side chains of the polyalkylenimine backbone and whose remaining hydrogen atoms are subsequently replaced by alkylenoxy units are referred to as repeating units of formulae (I) or (IV), respectively. Secondary amino moieties whose remaining hydrogen atom is subsequently replaced by alkylenoxy units are referred to as repeating units of formula (II). Tertiary amino moieties which branch the main chain and the side chains are referred to as repeating units of formula (III). 
     Since cyclization can occur in the formation of the polyalkylenimine backbone, it is also possible for cyclic amino moieties to be present to a small extent in the backbone. Such polyalkylenimines containing cyclic amino moieties are of course alkoxylated in the same way as those consisting of the noncyclic primary and secondary amino moieties. 
     The polyalkylenimine backbone consisting of the nitrogen atoms and the groups A 1 , has an average molecular weight Mw of from about 60 to about 10,000 g/mole, preferably from about 100 to about 8,000 g/mole and more preferably from about 500 to about 6,000 g/mole. 
     The sum (x+2y+1) corresponds to the total number of alkylenimine units present in one individual polyalkylenimine backbone and thus is directly related to the molecular weight of the polyalkylenimine backbone. The values given in the specification however relate to the number average of all polyalkylenimines present in the mixture. The sum (x+2y+2) corresponds to the total number amino groups present in one individual polyalkylenimine backbone. 
     The radicals A 1  connecting the amino nitrogen atoms may be identical or different, linear or branched C 2 -C 6 -alkylene radicals, such as 1,2-ethylene, 1,2-propylene, 1,2-butylene, 1,2-isobutylene,1,2-pentanediyl, 1,2-hexanediyl or hexamethylen. A preferred branched alkylene is 1,2-propylene. Preferred linear alkylene are ethylene and hexamethylene. A more preferred alkylene is 1,2-ethylene. 
     The hydrogen atoms of the primary and secondary amino groups of the polyalkylenimine backbone are replaced by alkylenoxy units of the formula (V). 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     In this formula, the variables preferably have one of the meanings given below: 
     A 2  in each case is selected from 1,2-propylene, 1,2-butylene and 1,2-isobutylene; preferably A 2  is 1,2-propylene. A 3  is 1,2-propylene; R in each case is selected from hydrogen and C 1 -C 4 -alkyl, such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl and tert.-butyl; preferably R is hydrogen. The index m in each case has a value of 0 to about 2; preferably m is 0 or approximately 1; more preferably m is 0. The index n has an average value in the range of from about 20 to about 50, preferably in the range of from about 22 to about 40, and more preferably in the range of from about 24 to about 30. The index p has an average value in the range of from about 10 to about 50, preferably in the range of from about 11 to about 40, and more preferably in the range of from about 12 to about 30. 
     Preferably the alkylenoxy unit of formula (V) is a non-random sequence of alkoxylate blocks. By non-random sequence it is meant that the [-A 2 O—] m  is added first (i.e., closest to the bond to the nitrgen atom of the repeating unit of formula (I), (II), or (III)), the [—CH 2 —CH 2 —O—] n  is added second, and the [-A 3 -O—] p  is added third. This orientation provides the alkoxylated polyalkylenimine with an inner polyethylene oxide block and an outer polypropylene oxide block. 
     The substantial part of these alkylenoxy units of formula (V) is formed by the ethylenoxy units —[CH 2 —CH 2 —O)] n — and the propylenoxy units —[CH 2 —CH 2 (CH 3 )—O] p —. The alkylenoxy units may additionally also have a small proportion of propylenoxy or butylenoxy units —[A 2 —O] m —, i.e. the polyalkylenimine backbone saturated with hydrogen atoms may be reacted initially with small amounts of up to about 2 mol, especially from about 0.5 to about 1.5 mol, in particular from about 0.8 to about 1.2 mol, of propylene oxide or butylene oxide per mole of NH— moieties present, i.e. incipiently alkoxylated. 
     This initial modification of the polyalkylenimine backbone allows, if necessary, the viscosity of the reaction mixture in the alkoxylation to be lowered. However, the modification generally does not influence the performance properties of the alkoxylated polyalkylenimine and therefore does not constitute a preferred measure. 
     The amphiphilic alkoxylated grease cleaning polymers are present in the detergent and cleaning compositions of the present invention at levels ranging from about 0.05% to 10% by weight of the composition. Embodiments of the compositions may comprise from about 0.1% to about 5% by weight. More specifically, the embodiments may comprise from about 0.25 to about 2.5% of the grease cleaning polymer. 
     Random graft co-polymer—The random graft co-polymer comprises: (i) hydrophilic backbone comprising monomers selected from the group consisting of: unsaturated C 1 -C 6  carboxylic acids, ethers, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, esters, sugar units, alkoxy units, maleic anhydride, saturated polyalcohols such as glycerol, and mixtures thereof; and (ii) hydrophobic side chain(s) selected from the group consisting of: C 4 -C 25  alkyl group, polypropylene, polybutylene, vinyl ester of a saturated C 1 -C 6  mono-carboxylic acid, C 1 -C 6  alkyl ester of acrylic or methacrylic acid, and mixtures thereof. 
     The polymer preferably has the general formula: 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     wherein X, Y and Z are capping units independently selected from H or a C 1-6  alkyl; each R 1  is independently selected from methyl and ethyl; each R 2  is independently selected from H and methyl; each R 3  is independently a C 1-4  alkyl; and each R 4  is independently selected from pyrrolidone and phenyl groups. The weight average molecular weight of the polyethylene oxide backbone is typically from about 1,000 g/mol to about 18,000 g/mol, or from about 3,000 g/mol to about 13,500 g/mol, or from about 4,000 g/mol to about 9,000 g/mol. The value of m, n, o, p and q is selected such that the pendant groups comprise, by weight of the polymer at least 50%, or from about 50% to about 98%, or from about 55% to about 95%, or from about 60% to about 90%. The polymer useful herein typically has a weight average molecular weight of from about 1,000 to about 100,000 g/mol, or preferably from about 2,500 g/mol to about 45,000 g/mol, or from about 7,500 g/mol to about 33,800 g/mol, or from about 10,000 g/mol to about 22,500 g/mol. 
     Suitable graft co-polymers are described in more detail in WO07/138054, WO06/108856 and WO06/113314. 
     Reserve Alkalinity—The composition may have a reserve alkalinity of greater than 4.0, preferably greater than 7.5. As used herein, the term “reserve alkalinity” is a measure of the buffering capacity of the detergent composition (g/NaOH/100 g detergent composition) determined by titrating a 1% (w/v) solution of detergent composition with hydrochloric acid to pH 7.5 i.e. in order to calculate Reserve Alkalinity as defined herein: 
     Reserve Alkalinity (to pH 7.5) as % alkali in g NaOH/100 g product=(T×M×40×Vol)/(10×Wt×Aliquot) 
     T=titre (ml) to pH 7.5 
     M=Molarity of HCl=0.2 
     40=Molecular weight of NaOH 
     Vol=Total volume (i.e. 1000 ml) 
     W=Weight of product (10 g) 
     Aliquot=(100 ml) 
     Obtain a 10 g sample accurately weighed to two decimal places, of fully formulated detergent composition. The sample should be obtained using a Pascall sampler in a dust cabinet. Add the 10 g sample to a plastic beaker and add 200 ml of carbon dioxide-free deionised water. Agitate using a magnetic stirrer on a stirring plate at 150 rpm until fully dissolved and for at least 15 minutes. Transfer the contents of the beaker to a 1 litre volumetric flask and make up to 1 litre with deionised water. Mix well and take a 100 mls*1 ml aliquot using a 100 mls pipette immediately. Measure and record the pH and temperature of the sample using a pH meter capable of reading to ±0.1 pH units, with stirring, ensuring temperature is 21° C.±2° C. Titrate whilst stirring with 0.2M hydrochloric acid until pH measures exactly 7.5. Note the millilitres of hydrochloric acid used. Take the average titre of three identical repeats. Carry out the calculation described above to calculate RA to pH 7.5. 
     The RA of the detergent compositions of the invention will be greater than 7.5 and preferably greater than 8. The RA may be greater than 9 or even greater than 9.5 or 10 or higher. The RA may be up to 20 or higher. 
     Adequate reserve alkalinity may be provided, for example, by one or more of alkali metal silicates (excluding crystalline layered silicate), typically amorphous silicate salts, generally 1.2 to 2.2 ratio sodium salts, alkali metal typically sodium carbonate, bicarbonate and/or sesquicarbonates. STPP and persalts such as perborates and percarbonates also contribute to alkalinity. Buffering is necessary to maintain an alkaline pH during the wash process counteracting the acidity of soils, especially fatty acids liberated by the lipase enzyme. 
     Perfume—The composition may comprise perfume. The perfume may be encapsulated, for example by starch. The perfume may be encapsulated by a urea-formaldehyde or melamine-formaldehyde material. Such perfume encapsulates may be in the form of a perfume microcapsule. 
     The composition may comprise an encapsulated perfume and an unencapsulated perfume, wherein the weight ratio of perfume raw materials having the general structure: R 1 R 2 R 3 CC(O)OR 4 , wherein R 1  R 2  R 3  are each independently selected from H, alkyl, aryl, alkylaryl, cyclic alkyl, and wherein either at least one, preferably at least two, of R 1  R 2  R 3  are H, present in the encapsulated perfume to those perfume raw materials also having the above general structure present in the unencapsulated perfume is greater than 3:1, preferably greater than 4:1, or even greater than 5:1, or 10:1, or 15:1 or even 20:1. 
     Typical perfume raw materials having the above general structure include: benzyl acetate, hexyl acetate, allyl caproate, geranyl butyrate, geranyl acetate, ethyl butyrate, neryl butyrate, citronellyl acetate, ethyl-2-methyl pentanoate, isopropyl 2-methyl butyrate and allyl amyl glycolate. Other perfume raw materials having the above general structure include: manzanate™ supplied by Quest, Ashford, Kent, UK; and vertenex™, verdox™, violiff™ supplied by International Flavors and Fragrances, N.J., USA. 
     The composition may comprises a perfume, wherein the perfume comprising at least 10 wt % of one or more perfume raw materials having a molecular weight of greater than 0 but less than or equal to 350 daltons, at least 80 wt % of said one or more perfume raw materials having a cLogP of at least 2.4, said perfume composition comprising at least 5 wt % of said one or more perfume components having a cLogP of at least 2.4. 
     The perfume compositions disclosed herein are especially useful for masking odors, particularly fatty acid odors, more particularly short-chain fatty acid odors such the odor of butyric acid, such perfume compositions are especially useful in detergent powders. 
     In one aspect of the invention said perfume comprises at least 10 % , 20%, 30%, 40% , 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, or even 90% of one or more perfume raw materials having a molecular weight of greater than 0 but less than or equal to 350 daltons, from about 100 daltons to about 350 daltons, from about 130 daltons to about 270 daltons, or even from about 140 daltons to about 230 daltons; at least 80 wt %, 85 wt %, 90 wt % or even 95 wt % of said one or more perfume raw materials having a cLogP of at least 2.4, from about 2.75 to about 8.0 or even from about 2.9 to about 6.0, said perfume comprising at least 5 wt %, 15 wt %, 25 wt %, 35 wt %, 45 wt %, 55 wt %, 65 wt %, 75 wt %, 85 wt %, or even 95 wt % of said one or more perfume components having a cLogP in the range of at least 2.4, from about 2.75 to about 8.0 or even from about 2.9 to about 6.0. In said aspect of the invention said one or more perfume components may be selected from the group consisting of a Schiff&#39;s base, ether, phenol, ketone, alcohol, ester, lactone, aldehyde, nitrile, natural oil or mixtures thereof.

     EXAMPLES 
     The present invention is further described by the following examples which should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. 
     Chemicals used as buffers and substrates were commercial products of at least reagent grade. 
     Example 1  
     Expression of Lipase Variants 
     A plasmid containing the gene encoding the lipolytic enzyme variant is constructed and transformed into a suitable host cell using standard methods of the art. 
     Example 2  
     Production of Lipase Variants 
     Fermentation is carried out as a fed-batch fermentation using a constant medium temperature of 34° C. and a start volume of 1.2 liter. The initial pH of the medium is set to 6.5. Once the pH has increased to 7.0 this value is maintained through addition of 10% H 3 PO 4 . The level of dissolved oxygen in the medium is controlled by varying the agitation rate and using a fixed aeration rate of 1.0 liter air per liter medium per minute. The feed addition rate is maintained at a constant level during the entire fed-batch phase. 
     The batch medium contains maltose syrup as carbon source, urea and yeast extract as nitrogen source and a mixture of trace metals and salts. The feed added continuously during the fed-batch phase contains maltose syrup as carbon source whereas yeast extract and urea is added in order to assure a sufficient supply of nitrogen. 
     Purification of the lipolytic enzyme variant may be done by use of standard methods known in the art, e.g. by filtering the fermentation supernatant and subsequent hydrophobic chromatography and ion exchange chromatography, e.g. as described in EP 0 851 913 EP, Example 3.

     Samples comprising detergent and lipolytic enzyme variants or a reference enzyme were dissolved in tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethan (TRIS) buffer at pH=7.7 and stored at −18° C. and 35° C. for 2 and 4 weeks respectively. The residual enzymatic activity was calculated as the lipase activity after incubation at 35° C. divided by the lipase activity of the samples stored at −18° C. The stability data are shown in Table 4 below. All six lipolytic enzyme variants demonstrated improved in-detergent stability, compared to the reference lipase. 
     The lipase activity was measured by monitoring the hydrolysis of the substrate p-Nitrophenyl-Valerate (pNp-Val) to generate the products valerate and pNp. Detection wavelength=405 nm; pH=7.7; and temperature=37° C. All lipases having esterase activity at this pH can be analyzed with this method.
