Responsible for the breaking down of maltose into glucose. This enzyme is found in plants, bacteria, and yeast.The glucose produced is either utilized by the body or stored in the liver as glycogen.
Two glucose, because maltose is two glucose join together
Maltase digests only maltose
Name of this enzyme is Maltese. It is present in the brush border of the lining of small intestine.
maltase is found in intestinal juice and hydrolyzes maltose to glucose. Substrate = maltose Product = glucose
Maltase is an enzyme that acts on the compound maltose. It is present in saliva and pancreatic juice and catalyzes maltose into glucose.
