About AMY2B

Cytogenetic location: 1p21.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:103,554,644-103,579,534 (from NCBI)

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.
