Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 1.6Å Ligands: , , , , , Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function AMY1A_HUMAN Calcium-binding enzyme that initiates starch digestion in the oral cavity (PubMed:12527308). Catalyzes the hydrolysis of internal (1->4)-alpha-D-glucosidic bonds, yielding a mixture of maltose, isomaltose, small amounts of glucose as well as small linear and branched oligosaccharides called dextrins (PubMed:12527308).
