Description
- The present Invention relates to a liquid composition, comprising a subtilisin and a subtilisin stabilizer.
- Storage stability problems are well known with liquids containing enzyme(s). Especially in enzyme-containing liquid detergents a major problem, in particular If the detergent contains protease, is that of ensuring enzyme activity over time
The prior art has dealt extensively with improving the storage stability, for example by adding a protease inhibitor.
Bone acid and boronic acids are known to reversibly inhibit proteolytic enzymes. A discussion of the inhibition of one serine protease, subtilisin, by boronic acid is provided in Molecular & Cellular Biochemistry 51, 1983, pp. 5-32.
Boronic acids have very different capacities as subtilisin inhibitors. Boronic acids containing only alkyl groups such as methyl, butyl or 2-cyclohexylethyl are poor inhibitors with methylboronic acid as the poorest inhibitor, whereas boronic acids bearing aromatic groups such as phenyl, 4-methoxyphenyl or 3,5-dichlorophenyl are good inhibitors with 3,5-dichlorophenylboronic acid as a particularly effective one (see Keller et al, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Com. 176, 1991, pp 401-405).
It is also claimed that aryl boronic acids which have a substitution at the 3-position relative to boron are unexpectedly good reversible protease Inhibitors. Especially, acetamidophenyl boronic acid is claimed to be a superior inhibitor of proteolytic enzymes (see WHO 92/19707)
InWO 96/41859

EP 251,446 WO 91/00345 EP 525,610 WO 94/02616 - Subtilisins are well-characterized physically and chemically. In addition to knowledge of the primary structure (amino add sequence) of these enzymes, over 50 high resolution X-ray structures of subtilisins have been determined which delineate the binding of substrate, transition state, products, at least three different protease inhibitors, and,define the structural consequences for natural variation (Kraut (1977) Ann. Rev. Biochem. 46 331-358).
One subgroup of the subtilases, I-SI, comprises the "classical" subtilisins, such as subtilisin 168, subtilisin BPN', subtilisin Carlsberg (ALCALASE®, Novozymes A/S), and subtilisin DY.
A further subgroup of the subtilases I-S2, is recognised by Siezen et al. (supra). Sub-group IS2 proteases are described as highly alkaline subtilisins and comprise enzymes such as subtilisin PB92 (MAXACAL®, Gist-Brocades NV), subtilisin 309 (SAVINASE®, Novozymes A/S), subtilisin 147 (ESPERASE®, Novozymes A/S), and alkaline elastase YaB.
Random and site-directed mutations of the subtilase gene have both arisen from knowledge of the physical and chemical properties of the enzyme and contributed information relating to subtilase's catalytic activity, substrate specificity, tertiary structure, etc (Wells et al. (1987) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 84; 1219-1223; Wells et al. (1986) Phil. Trans. R. Soc.
