AMY2B - amylase alpha 2B Gene
Also Known as HXA; AMY2; AMY3
Species: Homo sapiens
About AMY2B
This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 194 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Biased expression in pancreas (RPKM 6104.1) and salivary gland (RPKM 774.6).
Summary
Amylases are secreted proteins that hydrolyze 1,4-alpha-glucoside bonds in oligosaccharides and Polysaccharides, and thus catalyze the first step in digestion of dietary starch and glycogen. The human genome has a cluster of several amylase genes that are expressed at high levels in either salivary gland or pancreas. This gene encodes an amylase isoenzyme produced by the pancreas.
