ENZYME entry: EC 2.4.1.5

Accepted Name
dextransucrase
Alternative Name(s)
sucrose 6-glucosyltransferase
Reaction catalysed
[(1->6)-alpha-D-glucosyl](n) + sucrose = [(1->6)-alpha-D-glucosyl](n+1) + D-fructose
Comment(s)
  • The glucansucrases transfer a D-glusosyl 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->6) linkage.
