Description
Isoamylase is an enzyme with system name glycogen 6-alpha-D-glucanohydrolase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:Hydrolysis of (1->6)-alpha-D-glucosidic branch linkages in glycogen, amylopectin and their beta-limit dextrins. This enzyme also readily hydrolyses amylopectin.
