DEFINITION

Classification: 435/201

Acting on alpha-1, 4-glucosidic bond; e.g., hyaluronidase, invertase, amylase, etc., (some 3.2.1):

(under subclass 200) Subject matter wherein the enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of an alpha-1, 4-glucosidic bond.

(1) Note. Amylase from Bacillus macerans characterized by its ability to degrade starch in part to crystalline nonreducing substances known as Schardinger dextrins is included in this subclass.

(2) Note. In the absence of a clear showing to the contrary the recitation of "amylase" is presumed to mean alpha-amylase.
