| EC Number | 3.2.1.2 |
| CAS Registry Number | 9000-91-3 |
| Comments | Acts on starch, glycogen and related polysaccharides and oligosaccharides producing ¦Â-maltose by an inversion. The term “¦Â” relates to the initial anomeric configuration of the free sugar group released and not to the configuration of the linkage hydrolysed. |
| Cofactor | |
| History | |
| Reactions | Hydrolysis of (1->4)-alpha-D-glucosidic linkages in polysaccharides so as to remove successive maltose units from the non-reducing ends of the chains. |
