The study of α-amylase inhibitors and digestive enzymes in insect larvae offers crucial insights into insect physiology and crop protection. Insect larvae rely on α-amylase to hydrolyse starch, a ...

When humans domesticated grains some 12,000 years ago, natural selection began to favor genomes with extra genes encoding for the enzyme amylase, which converts starch to sugar. These extra genes ...

Scientists have suspected that modern humans have more genes to digest starch than our hunter-gatherer ancestors, but the amylase locus of the genome is hard to study. Researchers have now developed ...

ITHACA, N.Y. – A new Cornell University study brings additional clarity to the relationship between Type 2 diabetes and genes that express a salivary enzyme that breaks down starch. It was previously ...

For the first time, researchers have successfully used computational simulations to modify an enzyme’s structure to increase the optimum temperature of a reaction. Researchers at Uppsala University ...

Bakers need to be aware that “more is not better” when it comes to enzyme usage. There are amylases designed to assist with ...
