General description
Maltose 1-epimerase (MER), is an enzyme that catalyzes the interconversion of α and β anomers of maltose.
Application
Maltose epimerase has been used in a study to assess metabolite gene regulation. It has also been used in a study to investigate saccharogenic determination of α-amylase in serum and urine.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Determination of α-amylase in clinical analysis. Suitable for the determination of maltose.
Other Notes
Enzymatically converts β-maltose to α-maltose.
One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme which converts 1 umol of β-maltose to α-maltose per minute at 25°C and pH 7.0.

I describe a new kinetic enzymatic saccharogenic method for assaying alpha-amylase in human serum and urine. alpha-Amylase liberates maltose from starch. This is successively acted on by alpha-glucosidase, mutarotase, and glucose dehydrogenase. The resulting conversion of NAD+ to NADH, measured

Imidazole, histidine, histamine, histidinol phosphate, urocanic acid, or imidazolepropionic acid were shown to induce the L-arabinose operon in the absence of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate. Induction was quantitated by measuring the increased differential rate of synthesis of L-arabinose isomerase in Escherichia

A novel enzyme, maltose 1-epimerase (MER), that catalyzes the interconversion of alpha and beta anomers of maltose was found in a cell-free extract of Lactobacillus brevis IFO 3345, and MER was purified to homogeneity from the crude extract. The M(r)
