The present invention relates to enzymes produced by mutating the genes for a number of subtilisin proteases and expressing the mutated genes in suitable hosts are presented. The enzymes exhibit improved wash performance in comparison to their wild type parent enzymes. The enzymes are well-suited for use in detergent compositions.
