The method of assay of neutral alpha-glucosidase from human kidney and urine using beta-maltosides (p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-maltoside [NP-beta-D-maltoside], 2-chloro-4-nitrophenyl-beta-D-maltoside]) [CNP-beta-D-maltoside] and 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-D-maltosides ([MU-beta-D-maltoside]) as substrates and beta-glucosidase as an auxiliary enzyme is proposed. All three beta-maltosides are suitable substrates for the determination

In wild-type Escherichia coli the activity of the maltose transport system is dependent on a periplasmic maltose-binding protein. It has been possible, however, to isolate mutants in which transport activity is mediated by the membrane components of the system and

The effect of chemical modification of lysine residues on the activity of porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase (PPA) was examined, using p-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-maltoside, p-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-maltotrioside, phenyl-alpha-D-maltoside and phenyl-alpha-D-maltotrioside as substrates. Chemical modification of PPA with trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid enhanced the kcat/Km values for p-nitrophenyl substrates
