General description

Molecular mass: 51-54 kDa.
α-Amylase isolated from porcine pancreas is a glycoprotein. It is a single polypeptide chain of ~475 residues containing two SH groups and four disulfide bridges and a tightly bound Ca2+ necessary for stability. Chloride ions are necessary for activity and stability. The pH range for activity is 5.5 to 8.0, with the pH optimum at 7.

Physical form

Suspension in 3.2 M (NH4)2SO4, pH 6.1

Other Notes

One unit will liberate 1.0 mg of maltose from starch in 3 min at pH 6.9 at 20 °C.

The action pattern of Bacillus licheniformis thermostable α-amylase (BLA) was analyzed using a series of (14)C-labeled and non-labeled maltooligosaccharides from maltose (G2) to maltododecaose (G12). Maltononaose (G9) was the preferred substrate, and yielded the smallest Km=0.36 mM, the highest kcat=12.86
