I'm not positive about what enzymes digest sugar, but I do know that lysosomes contain hydrolytic enzymes which digest macromolecules, such as sugar.

Does crude fiber have enzymes?
Crude fiber does, in fact, have enzymes. There are also enzyme supplements that work to help aid the original enzymes in crude fiber digestion. The enzymes digest the crude fibers.
Hardest food for a human to digest?
There are a few top contenders, but it is suspected that the hardest food for a human to digest is bread. In order to digest food, enzymes are needed, which are secreted by the pancreas. Because bread has no naturally occurring enzymes (unlike a lot of other food) the pancreas has to work exceptionally hard, producing extra enzymes to break down the bread. Other food products that are hard to digest include pork, beans, broccoli and whole-milk hard cheese.
What substrate does bromelain work on?
Mostly just proteins. For example, collagen.
Why are enzymes produced?
Enzymes and digestion. The enzymes involved in respiration, photosynthesis and protein synthesis work inside cells. Other enzymesare produced by specialised cells and released from them; the digestive enzymes are like this. They pass out into the gut, where they catalyse the breakdown of food molecules.
Do enzymes in the small intestine need an acidic environment in order to work?
No, the small intestine do not need an acidic environment in order to work. Acid works in stomach to partially digest the food. In the small intestines, fats are digested using bile from the gallbladder which is not acidic.
Can grown ups digest paper?
Answer:To digest paper means: a] to read and absorb the contents of any written work/paper b] literal meaning to eat and digest.Yes.Adults can digest papers/books with full understanding of its content.No. Adults do not develop any new enzymes to digest paper. Paper is made of cellulose and only herbivores (e.g cow) can digest it
How does the pancreas help digest food?
The pancreas secretes bile, a digestive enzyme, into the intestines. Food is broken up and nutrients carried out into the the blood. The pancreas secretes enzymes that include lipases that digest fat, proteases which digest proteins, and amylases which digest starch molecules.
Do saliva work to break down starch into proteins?
It breaks it down and turns it into sugars, and that is why, if you chew starchy foods for long enough, they start to get sweeter.
What is the work of lysosomes?
Lysosomes are packages of digestive enzymes which can digest the cell they are in, if the lysosome breaks open; this is intended to prevent dead cells from cluttering up the larger, multicellular organism.
What are non fermenting sugar?
Spenda, or Sucralose, would work as a non fermenting sugar (NFS), because the yeast that turns sugar to alcohol cannot digest it. Another NFS islactose or milk sugar, but it isn't very sweet, and about 30% of the adults in the world cannot digest lactose. The final NFS that i am aware of is Malto-dextran. It is the main ingredient in corn syrup, and its not very sweet, but is indigestible to yeast.
Where do digestive enzymes work?
igestive enzymes work i n the elementary canal.
Complex organic molecules that work with enzymes to facilitate the enzymes?
co-enzymes
