Abstract
Alpha-amylase reputes for starch modification by breaking of 1-4 glycosidic bands and is widely applied in different industrial sectors. Microorganisms express unique alpha-amylases
with thermostable and halotolerant characteristics dependent on the microorganism’s intrinsic
features. Likewise, genetic engineering methods are applied to produce enzymes with higher
stability in contrast to wild types. As there are widespread application of α-amylase in industry,
optimization methods like RSM are used to improve the production of the enzyme ex vivo.
This study aimed to review the latest researches on the production improvement and stability
of α-amylase.
