Dear Social butterfly - i hope this answers your question:

Amylases degrade starch and produce small dextrins for the yeast to act. Gluten is a combination of proteins, which form a large network during dough formation. This network holds the gas in dough proofing and baking. The strength of this network is very important for the quality of all bread raised by yeast. Enzymes such as proteases, xylanases and lipases directly or indirectly improve the strength of the gluten network and so improve the quality the bread.

A small percentage of pentosans (non-starch polysaccharides) are present in flour. Pentosans have an important role in bread quality due to their water absorption capability and interaction with gluten, which is vital for the formation of the loaf structure. By hydrolysing the pentosans using some enzymes like hemicellulase, pentosanase or xylanase, the dough becomes easier to handle and the resulting bread has a bigger loaf volume and an improved crumb structure

Maps offers a range of amylases, proteases and xylanases for bread-making and dough improvement
