Biochem/physiol Actions

Turanose is an analog of sucrose that is not metabolized by higher plants but is used as a carbon source by many bacteria, fungi, and other organisms. It is taken up into plant cells by sucrose transporters and is involved in intracellular sugar signaling.

Amylosucrases are sucrose-utilizing α-transglucosidases that naturally catalyze the synthesis of α-glucans, linked exclusively through α1,4-linkages. Side products and in particular sucrose isomers such as turanose and trehalulose are also produced by these enzymes. Here, we report the first structural and

The substrate specificity of honeybee alpha-glucosidase I, a monomeric enzyme was kinetically investigated. Unusual kinetic features were observed in the cleavage reactions of sucrose, maltose, p-nitrophenyl alpha-glucoside, phenyl alpha-glucoside, turanose, and maltodextrin (DP = 13). At relatively high substrate concentrations

We have previously described the presence of haemagglutinins in tissues of the tick, Rhipicephalus appendiculatus and determined their sugar specificities by inhibition experiments. In this study, haemagglutination inhibitory sugars are shown to have an effect in vivo on the abundance

Selective activation of the ketose unit in the isomeric glycosylfructoses, palatinose, leucrose, maltulose, turanose and lactulose, with pyridinium poly(hydrogen fluoride) resulted in the almost quantitative formation of glycosylated difructose dianhydrides. The reaction preferentially involves a reactive fructofuranosyl oxocarbenium ion and

Sucrose has five structural isomers: palatinose, trehalulose, turanose, maltulose and leucrose. Although these isomers have been reported to be noncariogenic disaccharides, which cannot be utilized by mutans streptococci, there is no information about their fermentability by other bacteria in dental
