About Amy1

Summary

Enables amylase activity. Acts upstream of or within response to bacterium. Located in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including nervous system; pancreas; and submandibular gland. Orthologous to several human genes including AMY2A (amylase alpha 2A) and AMY2B (amylase alpha 2B).
