Effect of bacterial β-amylase and fungal α-amylase on the digestibility and structural characteristics of potato and arrowroot starches
(2016-01-01)
Retrograded and debranched starch, known as resistant starch type 3 (RS3), is resistant to digestive enzymes and exhibits a behavior similar to that of dietary fibers. In this study, the effect of β- and α-amylase on the ...
A critical assessment of a viscometric assay for measuring Saccharomycopsis fibuligera α-amylase activity on gelatinised cassava starch
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2002-02)
A viscometric technique for measuring Saccharomycopsis fibuligera DSM-70554 α-amylase on gelatinised cassava starch aqueous solutions was assessed. The selected conditions for working over a reliable viscosity measurement ...
Influence of molecular structure on the susceptibility of starch to α-amylase
(2019-06-01)
The effect of the molecular structure of sweet potato (SPS), cassava (CAS)and high amylose maize (HAS)starches on the susceptibility to fungal and maltogenic α-amylases was investigated. The logarithm of the slope (LOS)and ...
In silico analysis and effects of environmental salinity in the expression and activity of digestive α-amylase and trypsins from the euryhaline crab Neohelice granulata
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2017-08-30)
Studies on molecular characteristics and modulation of expression of α-amylase and trypsin in the hepatopancreas of intertidal euryhaline crabs are lacking. In this work, we cloned and studied by in silico approaches the ...
The dormancy-breaking stimuli "chilling, hypoxia and cyanamide exposure" up-regulate the expression of α-amylase genes in grapevine buds
(2014)
It has been suggested that respiratory stress is involved in the mechanism underlying the dormancy-breaking effect of hydrogen cyanamide (H2CN2) and sodium azide in grapevine buds; indeed, reductions in oxygen levels ...
α-Amylase inhibitors : a review of raw material and isolated compounds from plant source
(Faculty of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2013)
Heterologous expression and biochemical characterization of a novel cold-active α-amylase from the Antarctic bacteria Pseudoalteromonas sp. 2-3
(Academic Press Inc., 2019)
© 2018 Elsevier Inc.α-Amylase is an endo-acting enzyme which catalyzes random hydrolysis of starch. These enzymes are used in various biotechnological processes including the textile, paper, food, biofuels, detergents and ...
Modified α-amylase activity among insecticide-resistant and -susceptible strains of the maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais
