| Bioactivity | Glucoamylase, Rhizopus sp. hydrolyzes α-1,4 and α-1,6 glucosidic bonds in starch and similar substrates, and releases β-glucose molecules primarily from the non-reducing end. Glucoamylase, Rhizopus sp. participates in glycogen metabolism, and is related to glycogen storage disease type II. Glucoamylase, Rhizopus sp. converses starch to glucose, which can be used in industrial production of high fructose syrup, alcohol, and other fermented products[1]. |
