Aleksandra Kotlińska, David Aebisher and Dorota Bartusik-AebisherMedical College of The University of Rzeszów, Rzeszów, PolandPart of the book: The Biochemical Guide to EnzymesAbstractWithout the presence of numerous enzymes, digesting carbohydrates, one of the main components of our diet, would not be possible. Between monosaccharide molecules there are usually α-glycosidic bonds, and less frequently, as in the case of lactose β-glycosides, which enable the formation of complex carbohydrates, taking the form of long, sometimes branched chains.Keywords: β-glycosides, hydrolysis of α-glycosidic, sucrase-isomaltaseReferencesGoda T, Honma K.
