• The enzyme inulin fructotransferase (DFA-III-forming) (EC 4.2.2.18) catalyzes the following process: Produces α-D-fructofuranose β-D-fructofuranose 1,2′:2,3′-dianhydride (DFA III) by successively eliminating the diminishing (2→1)-β-D-fructan (inulin) chain from the terminal D-fructosyl-D-fructosyl disaccharide.

  • Tests upon glucose, saccharose, starch, and inulin substrates were carried out with enzyme solutions containing peptonase and lipase prepared by dissolving pneumococci in bile. (nih.gov)
