Sucrose Alpha-Glucosidase

A Sucrose Alpha-Glucosidase is a Sucrase that hydrolyzes sucrose and maltose by an alpha-D-glucosidase-type action.

• AKA: Sucrase, Sucrose Alpha-Glucohydrolase.
• Example(s):
  • Sucrase-Isomaltase.
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Sucrase-Isomaltase,
  • Amylo-Alpha-1,6-Glucosidase,
  • Pullulanase,
  • Limit Dextrinase,
  • Isoamylase.

  • Sucrose alpha-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.48, sucrose alpha-glucohydrolase, sucrase, sucrase-isomaltase, sucrose.alpha.-glucohydrolase, intestinal sucrase, sucrase(invertase)) is an enzyme with systematic name sucrose-alpha-D-glucohydrolase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

     : Hydrolysis of sucrose and maltose by an alpha-D-glucosidase-type action

    This enzyme is isolated from intestinal mucosa as a single polypeptide chain.
