Abstract α-Amylases are the oldest and versatile starch hydrolysing enzymes which can
replace chemical hydrolysis of starch in industries. It cleaves the α-(1, 4)-D-glucosidic …

Among the wide variety of amylolytic enzymes synthesized by microorganisms, α-amylases
are the most widely used biocatalysts in starch saccharification, baking industries and textile …

This paper describes the purification and characterization of a novel acidophile α-amylase
from newly isolated Bacillus sp. Ferdowsicous. The enzyme displayed a molecular weight of …

Aims This work was achieved to obtain the optimum culture conditions of the thermostable

generate appreciable amount of extracellular amylase and glucoamylase on soluble potato …

A gene encoding acidic, thermostable and raw starch hydrolysing α-amylase was cloned
from an extreme thermophile Geobacillus thermoleovorans and expressed. The ORF of …

Microbial α-amylase being a vital enzyme in industrial biotechnology, has also received
enormous attention in academic field. Although a huge number of α-amylases from different …

An amylase of a thermophilic bacterium, Bacillus sp. TSSC-3 (GenBank Number,
