FunFam 136642: Alpha amylase catalytic region

There are 5 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Neopullulanase. [EC: 3.2.1.135]
Hydrolysis of pullulan to panose (6-alpha-D-glucosylmaltose).
  • Cf. EC 3.2.1.41 and EC 3.2.1.57.

Cyclomaltodextrinase. [EC: 3.2.1.54]
Cyclomaltodextrin + H(2)O = linear maltodextrin.
  • Also hydrolyzes linear maltodextrin.
  • Formerly EC 3.2.1.12 and EC 3.2.1.13.

Glucan 1,4-alpha-maltohydrolase. [EC: 3.2.1.133]
Hydrolysis of (1->4)-alpha-D-glucosidic linkages in polysaccharides so as to remove successive alpha-maltose residues from the non-reducing ends of the chains.
  • Acts on starch and related polysaccharides and oligosaccharides.
  • The product is alpha-maltose; cf. EC 3.2.1.2.

Alpha-amylase. [EC: 3.2.1.1]
Endohydrolysis of (1->4)-alpha-D-glucosidic linkages in polysaccharides containing three or more (1->4)-alpha-linked D-glucose units.
  • Acts on starch, glycogen and related polysaccharides and oligosaccharides in a random manner; reducing groups are liberated in the alpha-configuration.
  • The term 'alpha' relates to the initial anomeric configuration of the free sugar group released and not to the configuration of the linkage hydrolyzed.
4 A0A0M0KQ95 A0A0M0KQ95 G4P139 G4P139
Beta-amylase. [EC: 3.2.1.2]
Hydrolysis of (1->4)-alpha-D-glucosidic linkages in polysaccharides so as to remove successive maltose units from the non-reducing ends of the chains.
  • Acts on starch, glycogen and related polysaccharides and oligosaccharides producing beta-maltose by an inversion.
