Abstract
The present invention relates to polypeptides having glucoamylase activity with improved properties and to compositions comprising these polypeptides suitable for use in the production of a food, beverage (e.g. beer), feed, or biofuel. Also described is an improved and cost-effective process for isolating glucoamylases suitable for large scale protein purification procedures. Furthermore, different methods and uses related to glucoamylases according to the invention are disclosed, such as in a brewing process.
