We disclose a food additive comprising a PS4 variant polypeptide, in which
the PS4 variant polypeptide is derivable from a parent polypeptide having
non-maltogenic exoamylase activity, in which the PS4 variant polypeptide
comprises substitutions at the following positions: G121D, 134, 141, 157,
223, 307 and 334 with reference to the position numbering of a
Pseudomonas saccharophilia exoamylase sequence shown as SEQ ID NO: 1.
