Alpha-glucosidase

Function Alpha glucosidase (AGS) or maltase breaks down the 1,4-α bonds in starch or disaccharides to produce glucose. Maltase breaks down maltose. Isomaltase breaks the 1,6 bond. See also Kennedy research. Disease AGS deficiency is the cause of Pompe Disease. AGS inhibitors are used as anti-diabetic drugs and can potentially prevent the fusion of HIV and hepatitis B virus to cells. Structural highlights (PDB code 3a4a).
