}}Invertase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis (breakdown) of sucrose (table sugar) into fructose and glucose.[1][2] Alternative names for invertase include {{EC number|3.2.1.26}}, saccharase, glucosucrase, beta-h-fructosidase, beta-fructosidase, invertin, sucrase, maxinvert L 1000, fructosylinvertase, alkaline invertase, acid invertase, and the systematic name: beta-fructofuranosidase. The resulting mixture of fructose and glucose is called inverted sugar syrup. Related to invertases are sucrases. Invertases and sucrases hydrolyze sucrose to give the same mixture of glucose and fructose. Invertases cleave the O-C(fructose) bond, whereas the sucrases cleave the O-C(glucose) bond.[3]

For industrial use, invertase is usually derived from yeast. It is also synthesized by bees, which use it to make honey from nectar. Optimal temperature at which the rate of reaction is at its greatest is 60 °C and an optimum pH of 4.5.[3] Typically, sugar is inverted with sulfuric acid.{{Dubious |Sulfuric acid |reason=yet this is mentioned nowhere on the Inverted sugar syrup page (to which "Inverted sugar" redirects |date=May 2016}}

Applications and examples

Invertase is expensive, so it may be preferable to make fructose from glucose using glucose isomerase, instead.{{citation needed|date=October 2013}}

Chocolate-covered cherries,[4] other cordials, and fondant candies include invertase, which liquefies the sugar. Once the candy is manufactured, it needs at least a few days to a few weeks in storage so the invertase has time to break down the sucrose.[5]

Inhibition

Urea acts as a non-competitive inhibitor of invertase, presumably by breaking the intramolecular hydrogen bonds contributing to the tertiary structure of the enzyme.[6][7]
