maltose, its products are glucose, the organ it is used in is duodenum, its optimal pH is 6.1-6.8, and its optimal temperature is 35-40 degrees Celsius.
All enzymes end in -ase. Their substrate is the base for the enzyme. For example: the sugar maltose is acted on by the enzyme maltase. Sucrose, by sucrase.
maltase is found in intestinal juice and hydrolyzes maltose to glucose. Substrate = maltose Product = glucose
enzyme-substrate complex
A substrate is the substance acted upon by an enzyme. The enzyme substrate complex is when an enzyme molecule combines with its substrates.
The substrates are converted into products, which are released.
Maltase is an enzyme which works on the substrate maltose. Maltose is a sugar consisting of two glucose subunits.
All enzymes end in -ase. Their substrate is the base for the enzyme. For example: the sugar maltose is acted on by the enzyme maltase. Sucrose, by sucrase.
maltase is found in intestinal juice and hydrolyzes maltose to glucose. Substrate = maltose Product = glucose
Sucrase is the enzyme (called a disaccharidase) that digests sucrose, the major disaccharide in table sugar.
in an enzyme-substrate complex, the enzyme acts on the substrate .
enzyme-substrate complex
The binding of an enzyme and a substrate forms an enzyme-substrate complex. It lowers the activation energy of a chemical reaction
Some thing then ase. So if the substrate was called B the enzyme would B+ase, Base. Or substrate Z, the enzyme would be Z+ase, Zase. Some examples, amylase, maltase, catalase, sucrase. That is the most common naming, but it is not ALWAYS the case.
The number of amino acids (aa) varies with the source of the maltase enzyme. The maltase enzyme from E.coli has 678aa Rat has 953aa Mouse has 953aa Human has 914aa Yeast has 584aa
NO. The enzyme acts on the substrate. The substrate is the chemical/compound being altered by the action of the enzyme. They are NOT the same.
A substrate is the substance acted upon by an enzyme. The enzyme substrate complex is when an enzyme molecule combines with its substrates.
Maltase is a biological catalyst used in digestion. Once starch has been broken down to maltose,maltase continues the chemical digestion and breaks the maltose down to glucose, ie a soluble, smaller molecule that can easily be absorbed.
