| additional information | transglycosylation activity assay using starch as donor substrate, and glucose, maltose, maltotriose, maltotetraose, maltohexaose, and maltoheptaose as acceptor substrates, starch degradation is determined by the iodine solution method. D-glucose ist the preferred acceptor substrate, higher activity also with maltose and maltohexaose, lower activity with maltotriose and maltotetraose. The activity of enzyme Hw-A is much higher than that of commercial amylase from Bacillus licheniformis | Haloquadratum walsbyi | ? | - |

|---|---|---|
| evolution | the enzyme belongs to the glycoside hydrolase family 77, GH77, which contains specific 4-alpha-glucanotransferases identified only in plants and algae (known as disproportionating or D-enzymes) and in prokaryotes (amylomaltases). Most of the GH77 enzymes reported in CAZy are of bacterial origin, while only few are from Archaea, plants, and algae. The gene encoding the amylomaltase in halophilic archaeon Haloquadratum walsbyi is not part of any operon involved in the metabolism of maltooligosaccharides or glycogen, as it has been found in bacteria. The gene has specific insertions yet unknown in homologous genes in prokaryotes, and present only in amylomaltase genes identified in the genomes of other Haloquadratum walsbyi strains. Amylomaltases can be classified in at least four distinct groups, structural features, overview | Haloquadratum walsbyi |
