  2. α-Galactosidase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Α-Galactosidase

    α-Galactosidase ( EC 3.2.1.22, α-GAL, α-GAL A; systematic name α-D-galactoside galactohydrolase) is a glycoside hydrolase enzyme that catalyses the following reaction: [1] Hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing α- D -galactose residues in α- D -galactosides, including galactose oligosaccharides, galactomannans and galactolipids

  3. Beano (dietary supplement) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beano_(dietary_supplement)

    Beano contains the enzyme α-Galactosidase, specifically one derived from the fungus Aspergillus niger.The enzyme works in the digestive tract to break down the complex or branching sugars (polysaccharides and oligosaccharides) in foods such as legumes (beans and peanuts) and cruciferous vegetables (cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, and brussels sprouts, among others).

  4. Galactosidases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galactosidases

    When the target gene is not found in the vector, the alpha fragment gene would be active, producing the alpha fragment and allowing for B-galactosidase to gain its activity. To trace the activity of B-galactosidase a colorless analog of lactose is used, X-gal. The hydrolysis of X-gal by B-galactosidase produces galactose, a blue colored compound.

  5. Fabry disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fabry_disease

    A person who inherits this gene does not have enough of a functioning enzyme known as alpha-galactosidase A. The lack of alpha-galactosidase leads to Fabry disease. A deficiency of alpha-galactosidase A (a-GAL A, encoded by GLA) due to mutation causes a glycolipid known as globotriaosylceramide (abbreviated as Gb3, GL-3, or ceramide trihexoside ...

  6. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha-glucosidase_inhibitor

    Since alpha-glucosidase inhibitors prevent the degradation of complex carbohydrates into glucose, the carbohydrates will remain in the intestine. In the colon, bacteria will digest the complex carbohydrates, thereby causing gastrointestinal side effects such as flatulence and diarrhea. Since these effects are dose-related, it is generally ...

  7. Glycoside hydrolase family 36 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycoside_hydrolase_family_36

    Alpha-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.22) (melibiase) [8] catalyzes the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose. In man, the deficiency of this enzyme is the cause of Fabry's disease (X-linked sphingolipidosis). Alpha-galactosidase is present in a variety of organisms.

  9. Migalastat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Migalastat

    Migalastat is used for the long-term treatment of Fabry disease in adults and adolescents aged 16 or older with an amenable mutation of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A (α-GalA). An "amenable" mutation is one that leads to misfolding of the enzyme, but otherwise would not significantly impair its function. [8]
