  2. Amylolytic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amylolytic_process

    Amylolytic process or amylolysis is the conversion of starch into sugar by the action of acids or enzymes such as amylase. [1]Starch begins to pile up inside the leaves of plants during times of light when starch is able to be produced by photosynthetic processes.

  3. β-Amylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Β-Amylase

    β-Amylase (EC 3.2.1.2, saccharogen amylase, glycogenase) is an enzyme with the systematic name 4-α-D-glucan maltohydrolase. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] It catalyses the following reaction: Hydrolysis of (1→4)-α- D -glucosidic linkages in polysaccharides so as to remove successive maltose units from the non-reducing ends of the chains

  4. Amylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amylase

    Another form of amylase, β-amylase (EC 3.2.1.2 ) (alternative names: 1,4-α-D-glucan maltohydrolase; glycogenase; saccharogen amylase) is also synthesized by bacteria, fungi, and plants. Working from the non-reducing end, β-amylase catalyzes the hydrolysis of the second α-1,4 glycosidic bond, cleaving off two glucose units at a

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enzyme_assay

    The rate of a reaction is the concentration of substrate disappearing (or product produced) per unit time (mol L −1 s −1). The % purity is 100% × (specific activity of enzyme sample / specific activity of pure enzyme). The impure sample has lower specific activity because some of the mass is not actually enzyme.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xylose_isomerase

    The L. lactis strain is stable over the pH range of 6.5 to 11.0, and the L. brevis enzyme, which is less tolerant of pH changes, show activity over the pH range of 5.7–7.0. [14] Thermal tests were also done by Kei Y. and Noritaka T. and the xylose isomerase was found to be thermally stable to about 60 degrees Celsius [ 14 ]

  7. α-Amylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Α-Amylase

    Diabetes: α-glucosidase and alpha-amylase inhibitors are found in several raw plants/herbs such as cinnamon [18] and bacteria containing acarbose [19] They are used as anti-diabetic drugs. The intake of a single dose of before a meal containing complex carbohydrates clearly suppresses the glucose spike and may decrease the postprandial ...

  9. AMY2A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMY2A

    Pancreatic alpha-amylase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the AMY2A gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Amylases are secreted proteins that hydrolyze 1,4-alpha-glucoside bonds in oligosaccharides and polysaccharides, and thus catalyze the first step in digestion of dietary starch and glycogen.
