  • Title: alpha-Amylase from human pancreatic juice as an electrophoretically pure isozyme.
    Author: Matsuura K, Ogawa M, Kosaki G, Minamiura N, Tamamoto T.
    Journal: J Biochem; 1978 Jan; 83(1):329-32. PubMed ID: 304856.
    Abstract:
    Human pancreatic juice collected antiseptically and strictly free from other body fluids and juices, was examined for the isozyme composition of alpha-amylase. Unlike those of the extract of and exudate from pancreatic tissue, the composition of alpha-amylase isozyme in the secreted juice was simple and consisted of only two isozymes, a major one and a minor one, and the reason for difference in the isozyme composition is discussed. The major alpha-amylase isozyme was obtained in a crystalline state with a molecular weight of 5.4-5.5 X 10(4).
