Trehalulose synthase

<StructureSection load='2pwe' size='340' side='right' caption='Structure of trehalulose synthase complex with sucrose (stick model) and Ca+2 ion (green) (PDB code 2pwe).' scene=>

FunctionFunction

Trehalulose synthase (THS) converts sucrose to trehalulose (TH).

RelevanceRelevance

Since TH is a sugar substitute and is absorbed more slowly than sucrose it can be used in diabetic and sports food and drinks.
