Human pancreatic amylase. Calcium ion visible in pale khaki; chloride ion in green. From PDB 1HNY. Amylase is the name given to glycoside hydrolase enzymes that break down starch into glucose molecules. Although the amylases are designated by different Greek letters, they all act on α-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Under the original name of diastase, amylase was the first enzyme to be found and isolated (by Anselme Payen in 1833).
