Chemically, the drug is an analog of the enzyme that is deficient in patients affected by Pompe disease, alpha-glucosidase. It is the first drug available to treat this disease. [2] It was approved for medical use in the United States in April 2006, as Myozyme [7] and in May 2010, as Lumizyme. [8]
Beta-glucosidase # EC 3.2.1.21 : is associated with Gaucher's disease: Lactase: EC 3.2.1.23 : one member of the β-galactosidase family, breaks down milk sugars, and its absence in adulthood causes lactose intolerance: Debranching enzyme # EC 3.2.1.33: in mammals, yeast and some bacteria, combines transferase and glucosidase activity in ...
α-Glucosidase hydrolyzes terminal non-reducing (1→4)-linked α-glucose residues to release a single α-glucose molecule. [ 10 ] α-Glucosidase is a carbohydrate-hydrolase that releases α-glucose as opposed to β-glucose. β-Glucose residues can be released by glucoamylase, a functionally similar enzyme.
β-Glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21; systematic name β-D-glucoside glucohydrolase) is an enzyme that catalyses the following reaction: [2] Hydrolysis of terminal, non-reducing β- D -glucosyl residues with release of β- D -glucose
Acid alpha-glucosidase, also called acid maltase, [5] is an enzyme that helps to break down glycogen in the lysosome. It is functionally similar to glycogen debranching enzyme, but is on a different chromosome, processed differently by the cell and is located in the lysosome rather than the cytosol. [6] In humans, it is encoded by the GAA gene. [5]
Thus, degrading the biofilm may increase antibiotic efficacy, and potentiate host immune function and healing ability. For example, a combination of alpha-amylase and cellulase was shown to degrade polymicrobial bacterial biofilms from both in vitro and in vivo sources, and increase antibiotic effectiveness against them.
