Asset Overview
Molecular structure of human salivary alpha-amylase. Salivary alpha-amylase is a major component of human saliv. It plays a role in the initial digestion of starch. The salivary amylase folds into a multidomain structure consisting of three domains, A, B and C.
The model was built using ChimeraX from X-ray diffraction crystal structure data in the Protein Data Bank (PDB ID 1SMD).
