LIQUID DETERGENT COMPOSITION CONTAINING
LIPASE AND PROTEASE




Technical Field

The present invention relates to liquid detergent compositions which
contain an enzyme system. The enzyme system is a combination of a
modified protease and a lipase.


Background

It is well known in the art that detergent compositions may
advantageously comprise enzyme systems. Such enzyme systems include
cellulase, protease, lipase and amylases. The present invention is
specifically aiming at providing liquid detergent compositions in which
the enzyme system comprises a mixture of protease and lipase.

Formulating such a combination in a granular detergent raises no
specific issue, since both enzymes can be physically separated. On the
contrary, formulating such a combination in a liquid detergent raises a
specific technical issue in that the protease is likely to take as a
substrate any protein present in the detergent composition.

W O 92/08779 z PCT/US91/08041
2~6~56

Specifically, it has been observed that lipases which may also be
present in the detergent composition are particularly subject to such
proteolytic degradation; as a consequence, the residual activity of the
lipase in the detergent composition will rapidly diminish with the
storage time of the detergent composition, so that it was up to now
impossible to formulate liquid detergent compositions comprising at the
same time a lipase and a protease, said detergent compositions being
sufficiently stable for a commercial exploitation.

It is thus an object of the present invention to provide a liquid
detergent composition comprising an enzyme system comprising a lipase
and a protease, wherein said enzyme system is stable; by stable, it is
meant that the proteolytic degradation of the lipase is substantially
reduced.

It has now been found that this object can be met by using anv
lipase, or mixtures thereof, together with a bacterial serine protease
wherein the methionine adjacent to the serine of the active site has
been replaced by another amino acid, or mixtures of such proteases.
Indeed, it has been discovered that this specific combination would
provide an enzyme system comprising a protease and a lipase, which would
be stable in a liquid detergent composition.

This solution has the advantage of being simple because it onlv
requires ingredients which are commercially available; indeed, several
modified bacterial serine proteases suitable for the purpose of this
invention are commercially available, as well as several lipases
suitable for use in a detergent comp~sition. Furthermore, the detergent
compositions according to the invention require no addition of specific
lipase stabilizers, and are therefore particularly attractive in terms
of product cost and environmental compatibility.


Modified bacterial serine proteases including proteases suitable for
use in the compositions according to the invention are disclosed for
instance in EP-A-0 328 229 as well as their use in detergent compositions.
This patent application describes among others a modified bacterial serine
protease which is commercially available from GIST-BROCADES under the name
MAXAPEM 15R.

Biotechnology Newswatch, published March, 1988, page 6, and
EP A-O 258 268 describe a lipase enzyme which is commercially available from
NOVO NORDISK A/S under the trade name LIPOLASER. This European patent
application mentions that LIPOLASER can be combined with proteases to form a
granular enzymatic detergent additive.

EP-A-O 381 262 describes detergent compositions comprising a protease
and a lipase, preferably LIPOLASER, together with a stabilizing system. The
proteases disclosed in this reference include bacterial proteases.
Summary of the invention
Accordingly, the present invention is a liquid detergent composition
comprising from about 5% to about 60% by weight of an organic surface active
agent selected from nonionic, anionic, cationic, and zwitterionic surface
active agents and mixtures thereof, and an enzyme system comprising a,lipase
derived from Humico 1a 7anuginosa a bacterial serine protease derived from
Baci11us subti1is selected from the group consisting of a Baci11us subti1is
which has been modified by replacing the methionine at position 197 in its
amino acid sequence with cysteine or a Baci11us subti1is which has been
modified by replacing the methionine at position 216 in its amino acid
sequence with cysteine and wherein said lipase is present in an amount
sufficient to provide from 0.1 to 10,000 Lipolytic Units per gram and
wherein said protease is present in the amount of from 0.005 to 10 mg of
active protease per gram of finished product, and from 0.01% to 5% by
weight of the composition of an enzyme stabilization system selected from
the group consisting of boric acid, 1,2-propanediol, carboxylic acids, and
mixtures thereof and wherein said composition has a pH of from 7.0 to 8.5.
Detailed description of the invention
The enzyme system according to the present invention comprises a
lipase and a protease. Any lipase suitable for use in a detergent
composition can be used in the compositions according to the invention, as
described for instance in EP 0 381 262 or EP 271 152. The preferred lipase
to be used in the compositions according to the present invention

C
f

W O 92/08779 P ~ /US91/08041
- 20~6~ 6 4 ~,_
~ is a lipase derived from Humicola lanu~inosa, as described in EP-A-0 258
068 to NOVO INDUSTRI A/S. This patent application describes how to
obtain said specific lipase, but said specific lipase is also
commercially available from NOVO NORDISK A/S under the trade name
LIPOLASER. Other commercially available lipases suitable for use herein
are Amono-P Lipase R, Amono-B Lipase R, Amono CES Lipase R, Amono AKG
Lipase R, all from Amono Pharmaceuticals, Japan; Toyo Jozo Co, Japan and
US biochemical Corp. USA as well as Diosynth Co, NL also commercialize
suitable lipases for use in the compositions according to the present
invention.

The compositions according to the present invention typically
comprise from 0.l to l0000 Lipolytic Units per gram of finished
product, preferably from l0 to 2500 Lipolytic Units per gram of finished
product. Lipolytic units are defined for instance in EP 0 258 268, page
5 line 38..

The proteases to be used according to the present invention are
modified bacterial serine proteases. All native bacterial serine
proteases are characterized in that the active site invariably comprises
a triade of amino acids which are serine, histidine and aspartic acid.
These amino acids are positioned in the native form of the enzyme in
such a way that they catalyse the cleavage of internal peptide bonds of
proteins. Another common point between these bacterial serine prote~ses
is that there always is a methionine adjacent to the serine of .he
active site, in the native sequence. The bacterial serine proteaseS
suitable for use according to the present invention are those wherein
the methionine adjacent to the serine of the active site has been
substituted by another amino acid. The serine of the active site can
also be defined as the serine which is homologuous to the serine in
position 221 in the amino acid sequence of the bacterial subtilisin
protease produced by Bacillus Subtilis; said sequence is listed herein
after in figure l.

W O 92/08779 5 P ~ /US91/08041
~g62~G
In the sequence of this bacterial subtilisin protease produced by
Bacillus Subtilis, the methionine is immediately after the serine in
position 221 and therefore it is the methionine in position 222 which
needs to be substituted by another amino acid. It is possible that, in
the sequence of other bacterial serine proteases, this methionine would
not be immediately following the serine of the active site; in such a
case, it is the methionine homologuous to the methionine in position 222
in the sequence of this bacterial subtilisin protease produced by
Bacillus Subtilis which needs to be substituted by another amino acid.

It is to be understood that the present invention does not reside in
these modified proteases per se, rather in ehe particular applica~ion of
these modified proteases to liquid detergent compositions also
comprising a lipase; it is therefore not the aim of the present
description to specify how these modified proteases can be obtained;
This modification can be done bv site-directed mutagenesis or any other
genetic engeneering technique well known in the art for this purpose:
for instance, EP-A-0 328 229, to GIST-BROCADES N.V. describes how to
obtain such proteases. Another suitable method is described in EP 130
756, which also describes a mofified bacterial serine protease suitable
for use in the compositions according .o the invention.
Furthermore, some modified bacterial serine proteases suitable for
use in the compositions according to the invention are commerciall.
available, such as DURAZY~ R from NOVO, which is the methionine moaified
version of SAVINASE R; another e~ample of available modified protease is
.YAXAPEM 15 from GIST-BROCADES, ~hich is ~he modified verSion of .~.CA'
wherein the methionine in position 216 has been subs.i.uted. Also
available are experimental samples of modified OPTICLE~ R and
OPTIMASER, from SOLVAY enzymefi; both are modified in that the methionine
in position 222 is substituted by a c~steine. Preferred modified
bacterial serine protease according to the present invention are .~AXAPEM
15R from GIST BROCADES and DURAZYM R from NOVO.

The compositions according to the present invention typically will
contain from 0.005 to 10 mg of active protease per gram of finished
product, preferably from 0.01 to 5.0 mg of active protease per gram of

W O 92/08779 P ~ /US91/08041

finished product2 ~19xtur~es of the modified bacterial serine protease
described herein above are also suitable for use in the compositions
according to the invention.


The rest of the liquid detergent composition according to the
present invention is made of conventional detergency ingredients, i.e.

W O 92/08779 9 P ~ /US91/08041
The compositions according to the present invention may further
comprise 8 builder system. Any conventional builder system is suitable,
but preferred is a mixture of citric acid and a substituted succinic
acid.

The citric acid builder employed in the practicé of this invention
will be present in the finished product in the form of any water-soluble
salt of citric acid. Such salts include, for example, sodium,
potassium, ammonium or alkanolammonium salts. In practice it is
convenient to use a citric acid monohydrate slurry as a starting
material, which will be neutralized in situ, so as to form the above
mentioned salts.

The substituted succinic acid builders herein are of the general
formula R-CH(COOH)CH2(COOH), i.e., derivatives of succinic acid, wherein
R is Clo-Cl6 alkyl or alkenyl, preferably Cl2-Cl4 alkenyl.
These substituted succinic acid builders are preferably in the
finished product in the form of their water-soluble salts, including the
sodium, potassium, ammonium and alkanolammonium salts (e.g., mono-, di-,
or tri-ethanolammonium).
As raw materials, it is preferred to use these succinic acid
derivatives in their diacid or anhydride form. The diacid will be
neutralized in situ, while the anhydride will undergo a
hydrolysis/neutralization process.
Specific examples of substituted succinic acid builders include :
lauryl succinic acid, myristyl succinic acid, palmityl succinic acid, 2-
dodecenyl succinic acid (preferred), 2-tetradecenyl succinic acid, and

It is well known from the man skilled in the art that the pH of the

W O 92/08779 10 P ~ /US91/08041
composition may~sign~f~cQntly affect the enzyme system's performance.~_~
Accordingly, the compositions according to the invention preferably have
a pH adjusted in the range of from 6 to 10, preferably from 7.5 to 8Ø

The compositions according to the invention may also comprise an
enzyme stabilizing system. Indeed, the present invention provides a
system wherein the protease does not significantly attack the native
lipase, but the enzyme system or components thereof may still be subject
to unstability problem due to the other detergency ingredients.
Therefore, stabilizing agents may be needed, which are conventional and
well known in the art. A preferred enzyme stabilizing system is
selected from boric acid, 1,2-propanediol, carboxylic acids, and
mixtures thereof. These enzyme stabilizing systems are typically
present in amounts of from 0.01% to 5% by weight of the total
composition.

The compositions of the invention may also comprise other enzymes.
such as cellulases or amylases. Amylases, particularly, seem to be
stable in the presence of protease, and the compositions of the
invention therefore preferably comprise an amylase.

The compositions herein can contain a series of further optional
ingredients. Examples of the like additives include : suds regulants,
opacifiers, agents .to improve the ~chinP compatibility in relation to
enamel-coated surfaces, bactericides, dyes, perfumes, bleaches including
perborate and percarbonate, brighteners, soil release agents, softening
agents and the like.

typically at levels of from 0.05 to 5%. These additives include
polyaminocarboxylates such as ethylenediaminotetracetic acid,
diethylenetriaminopentacetic acid, ethylenediamino disuccinic acid or
water-soluble alkali metals thereof. Other additives include organo-
phosphonic acids; particularly preferred are ethylenediamino
tetramethylenephosphonic acid, hexamethylenediamino
tetramethylenephosphonic acid, diethylenetriamino
pentamethylenephosphonic acid and aminotrimethylenephosphonic acid.
