General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. 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.

Application

Maltogenic amylases (MAse) are commonly used in the starch industry. They are used to hydrolyze starch, pullulan and cyclodextrin and to make novel carbohydrates .

Biochem/physiol Actions

Maltogenic amylase is in the amylolytic enzyme subfamily, which also consists of cyclomaltodextrinase, neopullulanase, and Thermoactinomyces vulgaris amylase II. These enzymes transfer the hydrolyzed sugar moiety to another sugar molecule. They have an (α/β)8 barrel and C domain as well as a 124-residue N domain, which is involved in homodimer formation .

Staphylothermus marinus maltogenic amylase (SMMA) is a novel extreme thermophile maltogenic amylase with an optimal temperature of 100 °C, which hydrolyzes α-(1-4)-glycosyl linkages in cyclodextrins and in linear malto-oligosaccharides. This enzyme has a long N-terminal extension that is conserved among

The physiological functions of two amylolytic enzymes, a maltogenic amylase (MAase) encoded by yvdF and a debranching enzyme (pullulanase) encoded by amyX, in the carbohydrate metabolism of Bacillus subtilis 168 were investigated using yvdF, amyX, and yvdF amyX mutant strains.
