The present disclosure relates to aalpha-amylase (AmyE) or its variants thereof. AmyE or its variants thereof may be used to more efficiently produce fermentable sugars from starch. Also disclosed are a composition comprising a glucoamylase and AmyE or variant thereof and a method of processing starch utilizing the described enzyme composition.

Saccharification enzyme composition and method of saccharification thereof

Described are compositions and methods relating to starch processing without a phytase pretreatment step and without adjustment of the slurry pH adjustment.

Compositions and methods for grain processing without pH adjustment

Described are compositions and methods relating to the use of a glucoamylase in combination with a phytase in starch processing to reduce the levels of phytic acid in end-products.

[object Object]

The present invention relates to an enzyme blend composition comprising a glucoamylase, an acid stable alpha amylase, and an acid fungal protease. The present invention is further directed to a method for producing end products such as alcohols from fermentable sugars, comprising the steps of: (a) contacting a slurry comprising a milled grain that contains starch with an alpha amylase to produce a liquefact; (b) contacting the liquefact with a glucoamylase, an acid stable alpha amylase, and an acid fungal protease, to produce fermentable sugars; and (c) fermenting the fermentable sugars in the presence of a fermenting organism to produce end products.
