Current Question (ID: 11480)

Question:
Sucrose is converted into glucose and fructose by the enzyme:
Options:
  • 1. Maltase
  • 2. Zymase
  • 3. Isomerase
  • 4. Invertase
Solution:
Sucrose is converted into glucose and fructose by the enzyme invertase. Invertase, also known as sucrase, is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose. This enzyme is found in many organisms, including plants, yeast, and bacteria, and is involved in the metabolism of sucrose as a source of energy and carbon. When sucrose is hydrolyzed by invertase, it is broken down into its component monosaccharides, glucose, and fructose, which can then be used by the cell for energy or stored as a source of carbon. This reaction is important in many biological processes, including the digestion of sucrose in the small intestine of animals and the production of sweeteners and syrups from plant sources.
