Abstract
A depolymerase may be capable of degrading extracellular polymeric substances of Klebsiella pneumoniae capsular type K47. The depolymerase can degrade extracellular polymeric substances of Klebsiella pneumoniae. Such a depolymerase may be a) an enzyme having a sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1, or having at least 80% homology thereto and having an activity of degrading extracellular polymeric substances from K47 capsular Klebsiella pneumoniae; and/or b) an enzyme having a sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, or having at least 80% homology thereto and having an activity of degrading extracellular polymeric substances from K47 capsular Klebsiella pneumoniae.
