Native Human Amylase, Alpha 1A (salivary)

• Cat.No.: AMY1A-5313H
• Product Overview: Native human AMY1A wasexpressed in Human Saliva.

Specification

• Cat. No.: AMY1A-5313H
• Description: AMY1A are secretedproteins that hydrolyze 1,4-alpha-glucoside bonds in oligosaccharides andpolysaccharides, and thus catalyze the first step in digestion of dietarystarch and glycogen. The human genome has a cluster of several amylase genesthat are expressed at high levels in either salivary gland (AMY1) or pancreas(AMY2). AMY1A is the isoenzyme produced by the salivary gland.
• Form: Liquid in a buffercontaining 10 mM Tris-Cl pH7.5.
• Source: Human Saliva
• Biological Activity: Typically >2000units/ml
• Concentration: Typically >5 mgprotein/ml
• Storage: Store at 2-8oC.
• Pathways: Carbohydratedigestion and absorption; Digestion of dietary carbohydrate; Metabolicpathways; Metabolism of carbohydrates; Salivary secretion; Starch and sucrosemetabolism
