Abstract

The invention relates to alkaline bacillus lipases, DNA sequences, which code for these lipases, a method for isolating and producing these lipases, as well as to bacillus strains, which have the capability to form these lipases. The alkaline lipases are suitable for use in compositions for cleaning, washing and bleaching purposes.
