Biological Activity

[Description]:

Maltose is a disaccharide formed from two units of glucose joined with an α(1→4) bond. Maltose is a reducing sugar.

[Target]

Human Endogenous Metabolite

[In Vitro]

Maltose is the two-unit member of the amylose homologous series, the key structural motif of starch. When beta-amylase breaks down starch, it removes two glucose units at a time, producing maltose. In the isomer isomaltose, the two glucose molecules are joined with an α(1→6) bond.
