A new study has found that genetic variants affecting sucrase, a digestive enzyme, are associated with an increased risk of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Researchers analyzed data from over 360,000 ...

Taste cells, identified by presence of T1R (green), also contain the disaccaridase enzyme sucrase (red), which cleaves sucrose into the simple sugars glucose and fructose, which can be detected by ...

However, Koh's newly synthesized substrate retains a short hemicellulose tail attached to the reaction site, and it turned out that it is this tail that the enzyme binds to when performing its role.

“Sucrase is a digestive enzyme that’s produced in the small intestine and is responsible for breaking apart the sugar sucrose into the smaller sugars glucose and fructose, so they can be ...

Sucrase-isomaltase (SI) is an intestinal enzyme critical for the digestion of dietary carbohydrates, particularly sucrose and starch. Previous studies from the Gastrointestinal Genetics team at ...

Sucraid is an oral enzyme replacement therapy of the genetically determined sucrase deficiency. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Sucraid ® (sacrosidase) Oral Solution single ...

The inhibitors, developed in Pinto's laboratory, were able to selectively inhibit the enzymes, a process they have called "toggling," and could lead to several solutions for diabetics or those prone ...

Some investigators (2, 12, 13) report significant decreases in major enzyme activities (lactase, maltase, sucrase, aminopeptidase, and dipeptidyl peptidase), whereas others report marked increases ...
