EXPRESSION
ORGANISM
UNIPROT
LITERATURE
Amy1 activity increases by 55% in the intracellular fraction after Cryptococcus flavus growth in the presence of 0.0005 mg/ml Cryptococcus tunicamycin
-
aspartate is identified as the most repressing sole carbon source for alpha-amylase production. Repression by glucose
barley seeds, starch and sucrose are the best carbon sources for fungal growth and production of alpha-amylase at 25°C. Urea, glycine and sodium nitrate are the best nitrogen sources
-
bread, starch, maltose, sucrose, lactose, glucose and galactose support growth and alpha-amylase production. Bread is the most supportive with optimum activity of about 29 units per mg protein within 216 and 240 hr
-
constitutively produced at low levels but can be induced further by starch addition
enzyme production is stimulated by peptone 0.3% w/v and yeast extract 0.2% w/v
glutamate is the most derepressing sole carbon source for alpha-amylase production
glycosyl hydrolase production in Sulfolobus solfataricus requires a trans-acting factor for wild-type levels of expression
highest amylase production is observed in wheat bran supplemented with nutrient solution (pH 4.0) after 96 hours of cultivation, reaching 417.2 U/g of dry substrate
-
induction of expression using submerged fermentation of mango kernels as substrate by Fusarium solani
-
induction when cells which were maintained in sucrose minimal medium with yeast extract are down shifted to sucrose minimal medium without yeast extract addtion
-
levels of alpha-amylase mRNA are reduced 10fold as a consequence of yeast extract medium supplementation to sucrose minimal medium
-
potassium nitrate, ammonium sulfate and casein, casein as nitrogen source in the defined growth medium with starch as carbon source support the highest activity of alpha-amylase
-
the highest level of amylase activity is detected in the broth fractions after 8 h of cell growth and enzyme activities decreased thereafter
the maximum production of enzyme is observed on the medium containing 0.5% (w/v) cassava starch, 0.5% (w/v) tryptone, yeast extract, soymeal, ammonium chloride, and ammonium nitrate enhance the amylase production
with potassium nitrate as a nitrogen source, maltose and glucose are the best carbon sources for fungal growth and production of the most active alpha-amylases at 25°C. Ammonium chloride and ammonium sulfate are the best nitrogen sources for production of alpha-amylase when starch is the carbon source
