Sucrase-Isomaltase Deficiency

New England Journal of Medicine, 1976
Deficiency of sucrase-isomaltase, an intestinal enzyme complex that is essential for digestion of nutritionally important carbohydrates, appears to be inherited as an autosomal recessive in 0.2 per cent of North Americans. The molecular basis of the deficiency has not been elucidated. To characterize the enzyme defect quantitatively, papain-solubilized

Sucrases in Phaseolus vulgaris

Nature, 1961
DURING work on the oligosaccharides of Phaseolus vulgaris, L. (namely, verbascose, stachyose, raffinose and sucrose1–3—the raffinose family of oligosaccharides1), an examination was made of the enzymes catalysing the hydrolysis of these saccharides. α-Galactosidase and sucrase activities were found in the ungerminated and germinated seeds.

Dietary stimulation of sucrase in a patient with sucrase-isomaltase deficiency

Biochemical Medicine, 1971
Abstract A 7-year-old girl with a 6-year history of chronic diarrhea and poor weight gain was found to have jejunal sucrase-isomaltase deficiency. Dietary fructose was used as a form of therapy to increase the sucrase activity to a level that would allow her to ingest small amounts of sucrose without becoming symptomatic.

Sucrase‐isomaltase and cystic fibrosis

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 1984
AbstractThe intestinal microvillar enzyme complex sucrase‐isomaltase has been studied in cystic fibrosis and control ileum. A number of biochemical parameters of the enzyme in ileum homogenates have been determined. Both solubilized as well as membrane‐bound sucrase‐isomaltase were analyzed with respect to their reaction with monoclonal antibodies ...

Sucrase metabolism in germfree rats

American Journal of Physiology-Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, 1982
We studied degradation of the intestinal brush-border protein sucrase-isomaltase in germfree animals as well as in ex-germfree animals and conventional controls to determine the mechanism by which intestinal bacteria alter disaccharidase levels. Our results indicate that sucrase-isomaltase turnover is as rapid in germfree animals as in the other ...

SUCRASES IN FUNGI

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Physiology, 1962
The yields of the extracellular sucrases produced by fungi and yeasts were markedly increased by using sucrose monopalmitate as carbon source. The sucrases of 10 fungi moved as single components in zone electrophoresis. The sucrases of six fungi were composed of two separable components. In one fungus, three sucrase components were observed.

CONGENITAL SUCRASE-ISOMALTASE DEFICIENCY

Pediatrics, 1972
Observations over a period of 6 years are reported on 10 children in whom the diagnosis of congenital sucrase isomaltase deficiency (SID) was confirmed by quantitative estimation of disaccharidase activity of the small intestinal mucosa. Repeat biopsies were performed on eight of the ten patients and showed no evidence that sucrase isomaltase activity ...
