Fortizyme (Sterling Winthrop). | [Biotechnological Production]
a-Amylases (4-a-D-glucan glucanohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.1) degrade starch and
similar carbohydrates by endohydrolysis of their (1→4)-a-D-glucosidic bonds. The
majority of a-amylases belong to the group of metalloenzymes and require calcium
ions (Ca2+). By means of direct evolution, the performance of several
amylases was further maximized and adapted to the needs of the starch processing
industry. The enhancement of the thermostability of amylase was achieved by
DNA-shuffling techniques. The baking industry and consumers might benefit
from genetically optimized starch-modifying enzymes. Based on the improved
thermal stability of an a-amylase in the acidic pH range, the retrogradation of
sourdough breads ("staling") can be delayed. | [General Description]

This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency and waste prevention when used in starch ethanol research. For more information see the article in biofiles. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
α-amylase catalyses the hydrolysis of α-1,4 glycosidic linkage in oligosaccharides. It plays a crucial role in the initial digestion of starch, glycogen and polysaccharides. Elevated levels of amylase in serum is linked to acute pancreatitis. | [Toxics Screening Level]
The initial threshold screening level (ITSL) for subtilisins is 0.0006 μg/m3 (1-hour averaging time). |
Questions And Answer | Back Directory | [Description]
Alpha-amylase is a kind of enzyme being able to hydrolyzes alpha bonds of large alpha-linked polysaccharides including starch and glycogen. It is a very small, stable enzyme which is resistant to many unfavorable conditions. It can hydrolyzes starch and glycogen to maltose and glucose, respectively so that providing energy for human beings and animals. Alpha-amylase is present in almost all kinds of plants, animals and microbes. It has many industrial applications. For example, it can be used in the production of ethanol through breaking starches in grains into fermentable sugars. It can also be used during the production of high-fructose corn syrup. In addition, it can be used in some dishwashing and starch-removing detergents.
