About us:

As you probably already know from "common knowledge," STARCH is one of nature's major energy storage compounds. (Name another.*) Of course, such energy storage compounds are only useful in times of need IF they can be rapidly broken down and the stored energy released. In the case of starch (aka "amylose"), there are two enzymes that do this task. Both are named amylase. It is VERY important that you notice the suffixes -ose and -ase. Enzymes usually have names that end in -ase, and things containing sugars end with -ose (such as in dextrose, sucrose and amylose). Woe be to the confused!

Before we can intelligently differentiate the two types of amylases, we need to know something about the structure of the substrate ("food") of these amylases. What does amylose, or starch, look like? It is a macromolecule, and the way macromolecules are usually depicted is by taking a small sample out of the extensive chain of repeating units. That is why the dots are shown fore and aft of the molecule in this picture:
