<p>The invention relates to an enzyme and a process for producing an enzyme capable of cleaving α-1,4-glucosidic bonds of starch. The enzyme comprises an amylase which has been modified by having an amine-containing group linked to a side chain of an amino acid residue of the amylase and/or to a terminal amino acid residue of the amylase. The enzyme functions at an elevated temperature and/or has an extended half-life compared to the corresponding unmodified amylase.</p> |
