ENZYME entry: EC 2.4.1.372

Accepted Name
mutansucrase
Reaction catalysed
[(1->3)-alpha-D-glucosyl](n) + sucrose = [(1->3)-alpha-D-glucosyl](n+1) + D-fructose
Comment(s)
  • The glucansucrases transfer a D-glucosyl residue from sucrose to a glucan chain.
  • They are classified based on the linkage by which they attach the transferred residue.
  • In some cases, in which the enzyme forms more than one linkage type, classification relies on the relative proportion of the linkages that are generated.
  • This enzyme extends the glucan chain by an alpha(1->3) linkage.
