Glucoamylase is an enzyme that can be obtained from the yeast S. diastaticus or fungi in the Aspergillus genus such as Aspergillus niger. The enzyme decomposes starch molecules in the human body into the useful energy compound of glucose. This is accomplished by removing the alpha-1 and 4-glycosidic linkages from the non-reducing end of the starch molecule. These molecules are more commonly referred to as polysaccharides and are frequently either amylase- or amylopectin-based. The purpose of glucoamylase in commercial food activities is centered around the brewing of beer and the production of bread products and fruit juices.
