Application

Sucrose Phosphorylase has been used in sucrose determination in wheat plant and in sucrose hydrogen production.
Sucrose phosphorylase has been used:

  • To assess the enzymatic synthesis of stable, odorless, and powdered furanone glucosides.
  • To investigate the novel transglucosylating reaction with carboxylic compounds.
  • In sucrose determination in wheat plant and in sucrose hydrogen production.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sucrose phosphorylase catalyzes the reversible conversion of sucrose (α-D-glucopyranosyl-1,2-β-D-fructofuranoside) and phosphate into D-fructose and α-D-glucose 1-phosphate. This reaction plays a crucial role in generating the vital glucose component through sucrose metabolism.(1)

General description

Research area: Cell signaling
Sucrose Phosphorylase belongs to glycoside hydrolase, GH13 family. It comprises of four domains with the glucose anomeric carbon-binding site and a glucoside-binding site. The active site residues include Asp192 and Glu232. It is majorly produced by bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria. The cross-linked sucrose phosphorylase aggregates is thermostable and could be exploited for industrial catalysis of glycosylation.

Other Notes

One unit will produce 1.0 μmole of D-fructose from sucrose per min with the corresponding reduction of NADP to NADPH at pH 7.6, at 25 °C.

Physical form

Contains sucrose as stabilizer.

Sucrose phosphorylase utilizes a glycoside hydrolase-like double displacement mechanism to convert its disaccharide substrate and phosphate into alpha-d-glucose 1-phosphate and fructose. Site-directed mutagenesis was employed to characterize the proposed roles of Asp(196) and Glu(237) as catalytic nucleophile and acid-base, respectively
