Cloning and expression of an extracellular α-amylase gene fromStreptomyces hygroscopicusinStreptomyces lividans66 [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1986 An extracellular α-amylase gene was cloned from Streptomyces hygroscopicus into Streptomyces lividans 66 using the multicopy vector pIJ702. Subcloning of DNA from the original clone allowed the gene to be localized to a 2.8 kb segment of DNA. Use of a promoter probe vector gave a possible location of the gene promoter and also the direction of ...

Bread Spoilage Fungi as Creators of α Amylase Using Two Types of Wheat Flour
BioResources, 2023 Fungal spoilage of bread can be a great problem; however, it can be explored as a producer of enzymes. The fungi were isolated from breads, and their activity for α-amylase production was planned.

Salivary biomarkers of HPA axis and autonomic activity in adults with intellectual disability with and without stereotyped and self-injurious behavior disorders [PDF]
, 2011 Salivary levels of biomarkers for the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis (HPA; cortisol) and sympatho-adreno-medullary system (SAM; α-amylase) were measured in 51 adults (57% male) with neurodevelopmental disorders associated with intellectual ...

Cloning and expression of the thermostable α-amylase gene fromClostridium thermosulfurogenes(DSM 3896) inEscherichia coli [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1989 The gene coding for a thermostable α-amylase from Clostridium thermosulfurogenes (DSM 3896) was cloned in Escherichia coli using pUC18 as a vector. The recombinant plasmid pCT2 of an amylolytic positive transformant of E. coli contained a 2.9 kbp fragment of chromosomal DNA of C. thermosulforogenes carrying the α-amylase gene. In E.
