Substrate specificities
Glycoside hydrolase family 77 is the member of the α-amylase clan GH-H [1], together with GH13 and GH70 [2]. The family contains only one enzyme specificity - the amylomaltase (EC 2.4.1.25), that is known as disproportionating enzyme (D-enzyme) Takaha1993 in plants or 4-α-glucanotransferase in bacteria Terada1999 and archaeons Kaper2005.
