Abstract
The present invention relates to isolated nucleic acid sequences encoding polypeptides having protease activity, in which the polypeptides are obtainable from an alkalophilic Bacillus species having enhanced stability towards bleaching agents of the peroxy type. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the nucleic acid sequences as well as recombinant methods for producing the polypeptides.
