HYDROLYSIS OF SUCROSE BY INVERTASE IN THE PRESENCE OF (r-METHYL GLUCOSIDE. I.*
نویسنده
چکیده
It has been observed by Michaelis and Pechstein (1) and others, that a-methyl glucoside manifests a marked retarding influence on the hydrolysis of sucrose by invertase. The curves given in Fig. 1 represent the hydrolysis of a 10 per cent sucrose solution by invertase in the presence and absence of the glucoside. Nelson and Hitchcock (2) found that the hydrolysis of 10 per cent sucrose solutions by invertase obtained from brewers’ yeast’ could be represented by the empirical equation:

Sucrose hydrolysis was carried Out by Saccharomyces strains. The effective rate of reaction was examined experimentally for 5 different Saccharomyces strains. Two Strains of Schizosaccharomyces and Saccharomyces Carlsbergensis showed the best invertase activity. These two strains showed Michaelien Kinetics in the sucrose concentration up to 0.2 M and inhibitory effect in the concentration b...

1. Methyl-O-fl-D-fructofuranoside has been prepared by the action of yeast invertase on sucrose in the presence of methanol. 2. The fructoside has been used as a substrate for a mould-enzyme preparation (Taka-diastase). An examination of the products showed that both hydrolysis and transfructosylation occurred. 3. Sucrose could not be detected among the products of action upon mixtures of methy...

The action of salicylic acid (SA) has been well investigated in plant resistance against pathogen attacks but its role may be extended to a more global anti-stress plant cell strategy. The expression of defense-related functions may be also enhanced by elevated hexose levels. To verify if there exists a relation between these two defense programs, SA effect on soluble acid invertase (EC 3.2.1.2...

1'-Fluorosucrose (FS), a sucrose analog resistant to hydrolysis by invertase, was transported from husk leaves into maize (Zea mays L., Pioneer Hybrid 3320) kernels with the same magnitude and kinetics as sucrose. (14)C-Label from [(14)C]FS and [(14)C]sucrose in separate experiments was distributed similarly between the pedicel, endosperm, and embryo with time. FS passed through maternal tissue...

1. A method is given whereby the course of hydrolysis of sucrose by live yeast cells may be followed with precision equal to that found when invertase solutions prepared from autolyzed yeast are used to cause inversion. 2. The practical value of the equation of Nelson and Hitchcock as a means of following the course of enzymic hydrolysis of sucrose is hereby extended. 3. The inversion of sucros...
