  • SI Gene Sucrase-Isomaltase
    SI gene sucrase-isomaltase Normal Function The SI gene provides instructions for producing the enzyme sucrase-isomaltase. This enzyme is found in the intestinal tract, where it is involved in breaking down the sugars sucrose (a sugar found in fruits, and also known as table sugar) and maltose (the sugar found in grains). Sucrose and maltose are called disaccharides because they are each made up of two simple sugar molecules. Disaccharides must be broken down into simple sugar molecules to be digested properly. The sucrase-isomaltase enzyme is found on the surface of the intestinal epithelial cells, which are cells that line the walls of the intestine. These cells have fingerlike projections called microvilli that absorb nutrients from food as it passes through the intestine. Based on their appearance, groups of these microvilli are known collectively as the brush border. The role of the sucrase-isomaltase enzyme is to break down sucrose and maltose into simple sugars so that they can be absorbed by microvilli into intestinal epithelial cells. Health Conditions Related to Genetic Changes Congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency At least 10 mutations in the SI gene have been found to cause congenital sucrase- isomaltase deficiency. These mutations disrupt the folding and processing of the sucrose-isomaltase enzyme, transportation of the enzyme within the intestinal epithelial cells, the orientation of the enzyme to the cell surface, or its normal functioning. An impairment in any of these cell processes results in a sucrase-isomaltase enzyme that cannot effectively break down sucrose, maltose, or other compounds made from these sugar molecules (carbohydrates).

  • Congenital Sucrase-Isomaltase Deficiency
    Congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency Description Congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency is a disorder that affects a person's ability to digest certain sugars. People with this condition cannot break down the sugars sucrose and maltose. Sucrose (a sugar found in fruits, and also known as table sugar) and maltose (the sugar found in grains) are called disaccharides because they are made of two simple sugars. Disaccharides are broken down into simple sugars during digestion. Sucrose is broken down into glucose and another simple sugar called fructose, and maltose is broken down into two glucose molecules. People with congenital sucrase- isomaltase deficiency cannot break down the sugars sucrose and maltose, and other compounds made from these sugar molecules (carbohydrates). Congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency usually becomes apparent after an infant is weaned and starts to consume fruits, juices, and grains. After ingestion of sucrose or maltose, an affected child will typically experience stomach cramps, bloating, excess gas production, and diarrhea. These digestive problems can lead to failure to gain weight and grow at the expected rate (failure to thrive) and malnutrition. Most affected children are better able to tolerate sucrose and maltose as they get older. Frequency The prevalence of congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency is estimated to be 1 in 5, 000 people of European descent. This condition is much more prevalent in the native populations of Greenland, Alaska, and Canada, where as many as 1 in 20 people may be affected. Causes Mutations in the SI gene cause congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency. The SI gene provides instructions for producing the enzyme sucrase-isomaltase.

  • Digestion of Carbohydrates
    Digestion of carbohydrates Alongside fat and protein, carbohydrates are one of the three macronutrients in our diet with their main function being to provide energy to the body. They occur in many different forms, like sugars and dietary fibre, and in many different foods, such as whole grains, fruit and vegetables. Digesting or metabolizing carbohydrates breaks foods down into sugars, which are also called saccharides. These molecules begin digesting in the mouth and continue through the body to be used for anything from normal cell functioning to cell growth and repair. It is also directly used as energy source in muscle, brain and other cells. Dietary carbohydrate principally consists of …. Polysaccharides: - Starch, glycogen and cellulose Disaccharides: - Sucrose and maltose Monosaccharide:-Glucose and fructose Out of these three types of carbohydrates, monosaccharide does not need digestion. Digestion of carbohydrates During digestion, carbohydrates that consist of more than one sugar get broken down into their monosaccharides by digestive enzymes, and then get directly absorbed causing a glycaemic response. Some of the carbohydrates cannot be broken down and they get either fermented by our gut bacteria or they transit through the gut without being changed. Digestive enzymes and their source Mouth: - Salivary amylase (α-amylase, Ptyalin) Stomach: - No enzymes Pancreas: - Pancreatic α-amylase Intestine: - Dextrinase, Maltase, Isomaltase, Sucrase, Lactase Digestion in mouth Digestion of carbohydrates starts at the mouth.

Wind, Ph.D., Director, Division of Health Sciences,w&; Directorate for Epidemiology and Health Sciences FROM: Jacqueline N. Ferrante, Ph.D., Pharmacologist, Division of Health Sciences, JF Directorate for Epidemiology and Health Sciences SUBJECT: Sucraid Review 1 Introduction Orphan Medical petitioned the Commission to exempt SucraidrM, an oral solution of the enzyme sacrosidase, from special packaging requirements for oral prescription drugs under the Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA). This memorandum reviews scientific information related to Sucraidr”. Product Description and Use SucraidTM is the brand name for sacrosidase, a yeast-derived form of the sucrase enzyme. This enzyme is obtained from baker’s yeast which is also known as Saccharomyces cerevisiae. SucraidTM contains 1.5 milligrams (8,500 International Units) per milliliter (mg/ml) of the enzyme in a 5050 solution of glycerol and water at an unbuffered slightly acidic pH of 4.6. SucraidTM is the only available treatment for congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency (CSID). It is replacement therapy for sucrase, not isomaltase. The petitioner argues that the confectionery and baking industry has used this enzyme extensively and that under 21 CFR 170.30 it is a “Generally Recognized as Safe” (GRAS) food material because of its long history of safe use in humans. It is used as a flavoring agent and adjuvant at a level not to exceed five percent in food. The recommended dose of SucraidTM for patients with CSID is one ml per meal or snack for patients weighing up to 15 kilograms (kg) (33 pounds) and 2 ml for patients over 15 kg.

  • Regulatory Functions of Α-Amylase in the Small Intestine Other Than
    Chapter Regulatory Functions of α-Amylase in the Small Intestine Other than Starch Digestion: α-Glucosidase Activity, Glucose Absorption, Cell Proliferation, and Differentiation Kimie Date Abstract Pancreatic α-amylase binds to the N-glycan of glycoproteins. Here, I will show that pancreatic α-amylase has regulatory functions in the small intestine other than starch digestion. These new functions were revealed by identification of α-amylase- binding proteins in the intestinal brush border membrane (BBM). This topic will include the following four parts: 1) identification of glycoproteins that bind pan- creatic α-amylase in the small intestinal BBM; 2) interactions between pancreatic α-amylase and the binding glycoproteins, sucrose-isomaltase (α-glucosidase), and sodium/glucose co-transporter 1 (SGLT1), in which pancreatic α-amylase enhanced maltose degradation of sucrose-isomaltase under conditions including calcium and sodium, and inhibited glucose uptake of SGLT1; 3) localization of pancreatic α-amylase in the small intestine by binding to the BBM and being internalized into lysosomes through the endocytic pathway; and 4) expression of endogenous α-amylase in the duodenum: AMY2B, a pancreatic type α-amylase, is highly expressed in the human duodenum next to the pancreas. The α-amylase expression in the duodenum is required for proliferation and differentiation of human small intestinal epithelial cells. Keywords: pancreatic α-amylase, small intestine, sucrase-isomaltase, SGLT1, cell proliferation, cell differentiation, endocytosis 1. Introduction α-Amylase has been found in many organisms, including bacteria, mainly Bacilli, seeds of cereals and legumes, and digestive glands of animals such as humans and pigs. These α-amylases can be obtained as homogeneous preparations and utilized in various situations.
