Comments
This enzyme belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase family-13. Although this enzyme binds three calcium ions and a sodium ion, they are not involved in catalytic reaction. The catalytic mechanism of this enzyme must be the same as that of the other alpha-amylase (D00165 in EzCatDB).
####
Chain A and B of PDB;1bpl are parts of the enzyme. Cleaved after GLU 189, chain A is N-terminal side and chain B is C-terminal side.
As 1e3x, 1e3z, 1e40, 1e43 of PDB are chimaeric protein consisting of residues 1-300 of Swiss-prot;P00692(residues 32-331) and residues 301-483 of Swiss-prot;P06278(residues 330-512), these entries are not included in this entry.
