What might happen if lactase was not there or didnt work properly?
The sugar lactose would not be broken down. This one cause of lactose intolerance in someone who can't drink milk or eat milk based products. Symptoms of lactose intolerance are diarrhea, flatulence (passing gas), and abdominal pain.
Whats the function of the lactase substrate?
Lactase is the bodily enzyme that breaks down Lactose, a sugar found in milk.
Is lactase breaking down lactose dehydration or hydrolosis?
lactase catalyses hydrolysis of lactose.
How common are enzyme deficiencies other than lactase?
Deficiencies in enzymes other than lactase are extremely rare.
What is lactase used for?
Lactase improves the digestion of milk by some people who lack the enzymes, aka lactose intolerance.
What would happen of we didn't have lactase?
if we didnt have lactase we would all be dead
Where in the body does lactase work?

Why is lactase not found in stomach or large intestine?
this is because Lactase activity increase at a pH of 7 and 8 but at a pH of 7, the activity is maximum. At a pH above 7, the activity is decreasing. At a pH of 1 and 2, Lactase is inactive. Therefore, Lactase work best at a pH between 7 and 8.
What will happen if you have a glass of wine with antibiotics?
your antibiotics might not work as they should.
What might be an effect of the decrease in their production of lactase?
Their bodies cannot digest as much lactose as other people's bodies.
People with lactose intolerance produce insufficient amounts of?
the enzyme, lactase
What do you call the Enzyme that breaks down dairy sugar?
lactase
Why doesnt the lactase in lactose intolerant people work?
Lactose intolerant people have a deficiency of an enzyme called lactase, which breaks up the lactose into two monosaccharides called galactose and glucose. These two are easily digestable, whereas lactose is not.
Whats the function of the lactase substrate?
Lactase is the bodily enzyme that breaks down Lactose, a sugar found in milk.
What lack of enzyme cause lactose intolerance?
The enzyme which the body uses to digest lactose is lactase.
Would lactase work on a different sugar like sucrose?
no, because hte way it is made and the sublike substance it has
