AMY1A - amylase alpha 1A Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as AMY1

Gene ID: 276 | Gene type: protein coding

About AMY1A

Cytogenetic location: 1p21.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:103,655,519-103,664,554 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 192 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Restricted expression toward salivary gland (RPKM 4834.2).

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 salivary gland. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
