ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a protein that is aZygomycetes-derived endoglucanase lacking the cellulose-binding domain and exhibits endoglucanase activity, and a method for using the same. This invention can enhance effects of an endoglucanase enzyme on fabric treatment such as reduction of fuzzing, improvement in feel and appearance, color clarification, partial color change, and softening of cellulose-containing fabrics and on performance improvement in the deinking of waste paper and drainage of paper pulp.
