Human salivary alpha-amylase participates in the initial digestion of starch and may be involved in the colonization of viridans streptococci in the mouth. To elucidate the role of histidine residues located near the starch-binding site on the streptococcal-binding activity, the

Human non-salivary, non-pancreatic alpha-amylase (yHXA) is the gene product of a newly found human alpha-amylase gene expressed in yeast. Its mode of action on a fluorogenic derivative of p-nitrophenyl alpha-maltopentaoside, FG5P (FG-G-G-G-G-P), was examined at various pH values to elucidate
Reference values for alpha-amylase activity in serum and urine by a new chromogenic amylase method.
