After incubation at 35oC for 60 min, the activity of the enzyme was equal
to the activity of untreated enzyme (100%).
b
The relative amylase activity (%) after addition of various metal ions.
Fig. 2. SDS-PAGE of purified -amylase stained with silver (A) and separation and detection by PAGE of extracellular -amylase
from culture supernatants of L. lactis IBB500 (B).
The gel (B) was incubated in 20 mM sodium phosphate buffer pH 4.5 containing 1% soluble starch at 35oC for 1 h. The enzyme activity was detected by
staining the gel with 500 mM I2 solution.

Fig. 5. Dendrogram showing the relationships among the amino acid sequences of -amylases from different bacterial species.

The dendrogram was generated with the CLUSTAL X program [39]. Bacterial -amylases were divided into seven clusters. Bacteria with a homology
between the analyzed amino acid sequences are marked with * (ALAB) and # (Ralstonia sp.).
