The present invention relates to novel heat-resistantnamylomaltase, a gene encoding the same, and anprocess for producing the same. The amylomaltase generatesna cyclic glucan by an intramolecularntransglycosylation reaction, using an α-glucan as a substrate,nbut does not substantially catalyze a hydrolyticnreaction. The present invention also relates to a methodnfor producing a cyclic glucan and a method for improvingnfood using the heat-resistant amylomaltase. |
