2.4.1.7 |
Accepted name: |
sucrose phosphorylase |
Reaction: |
sucrose + phosphate = D-fructose + α-D-glucose 1-phosphate |
Other name(s): |
sucrose glucosyltransferase; disaccharide glucosyltransferase |
Systematic name: |
sucrose:phosphate α-D-glucosyltransferase |
Comments: |
In the forward reaction, arsenate may replace phosphate. In the reverse reaction, various ketoses and L-arabinose may replace D-fructose. |
