Molecular, Biochemical, and Dietary Regulation Features of α-Amylase in a Carnivorous Crustacean, the Spiny Lobster Panulirus argus. [PDF]
Alpha-amylases are ubiquitously distributed throughout microbials, plants and animals. It is widely accepted that omnivorous crustaceans have higher α-amylase activity and number of isoforms than carnivorous, but contradictory results have been obtained ...

Using Molecular Docking to Investigate the Alpha-amylase Inhibitory Activity of Bitter Peptides RK7 and KQ7 Derived from Yak Cheese [PDF]
In this study, the physicochemical properties of two bitter peptides derived from yak cheese, RPKHPIK (RK7) and KVLPVPQ (KQ7) were calculated by using online bioinformatics tools such as ExPASy-ProtParam, Innovagen, and Pep-Draw.

Isolation and characterization of α ‐amylase encoding gene in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens PAS
Amylolytic bacteria are a source of amylase, which is an essential enzyme to support microalgae growth in the bioreactor for microalgae culture. In a previous study, the highest bacterial isolate to hydrolyze amylum (namely PAS) was successfully isolated

Immobilization of Trichoderma harzianum α-Amylase on Treated Wool: Optimization and Characterization
α-Amylase from Trichoderma harzianum was covalently immobilized on activated wool by cyanuric chloride. Immobilized α-amylase exhibited 75% of its initial activity after 10 runs.
