General annotation (Comments)

Function

Since only maltooligosaccharides up to a chain length of 6 glucose units are actively transported through the cytoplasmic membrane via the membrane-bound complex of three proteins, MalF, MalG, and MalK, longer maltooligosaccharides must first be degraded by the periplasmic alpha-amylase, the MalS protein.

Catalytic activity

Endohydrolysis of (1->4)-alpha-D-glucosidic linkages in polysaccharides containing three or more (1->4)-alpha-linked D-glucose units.

Cofactor

Binds 1 calcium ion per subunit By similarity.

Subunit structure

Monomer.

Subcellular location

Periplasm.

Induction

Under the regulatory control of the MalT protein.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 13 family.
