Sucrose alpha-glucosidase


Sucrose alpha-glucosidase is an enzyme with systematic name sucrose-alpha-D-glucohydrolase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
This enzyme is isolated from intestinal mucosa as a single polypeptide chain. The human sucrase-isomaltase is a dual-function enzyme with two GH31 domains, one serving as the isomaltase, the other serving as a sucrose alpha-glucosidase.
