Calcium-binding enzyme that initiates starch digestion in the oral cavity.Catalyzes the hydrolysis of internal(1->4)-alpha-D-glucosidic bonds,yielding a mixture of maltose,isomaltose,small amounts of glucose as well as small linear and branched oligosaccharides called dextrins.
A synthesized peptide derived from human AMY2A.
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. The human genome has a cluster of several amylase genes that are expressed at high levels in either salivary gland or pancreas. This gene encodes an amylase isoenzyme produced by the pancreas.
