2.4.1.9 |
| Accepted name: |
inulosucrase |
| Reaction: |
sucrose + [(2→1)-β-D-fructosyl]n = glucose + [(2→1)-β-D-fructosyl]n+1 |
| Other name(s): |
sucrose 1-fructosyltransferase; sucrose:2,1-β-D-fructan 1-β-D-fructosyltransferase |
| Systematic name: |
sucrose:(2→1)-β-D-fructan 1-β-D-fructosyltransferase |
| Comments: |
Converts sucrose into inulin and D-glucose. Some other sugars can act as D-fructosyl acceptors. |
