alpha-Glucosidases (Acid Maltase) Summary

Description: Enzymes that catalyze the exohydrolysis of 1,4-alpha-glucosidic linkages with release of alpha-glucose. Deficiency of alpha-1,4-glucosidase may cause GLYCOGEN STORAGE DISEASE TYPE II.

Also Known As: Acid Maltase; Maltases; Maltase-Glucoamylase; Neutral Maltase; Neutral alpha-Glucosidase Show All >>
