Component

Saccharomyces cerevisiae alpha-glucosidase assay enzyme

Saccharomyces cerevisiae alpha-glucosidase assay enzyme. Interpret through the linked experimental species, preparation, compartment and exposure; no universal causal effect is implied.

4 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

    **Enzyme identity changes the digestive-enzyme claim.** A purified-compound assay used yeast α-glucosidase and a synthetic substrate, not human sucrase-isomaltase. Delphinidin aglycone inhibited with an IC50 near 4.11 µM; cyanidin was about 17.01 µM. Delphinidin-3-glucoside was much weaker, around 364 µM, and its 3,5-diglucoside showed no detected inhibition in the tested range. These values establish structure-dependent assay behavior. They cannot be imported as human intestinal IC50 values or a clinical comparison with acarbose. Docking does not repair that species/substrate gap.
