An enzyme, such as lactase, that is involved in the hydrolytic breakdown of a galactoside.
Example sentencesExamples
The third term accounts for the conversion of lactose to allolactose as well as the hydrolysis of lactose to glucose and galactose via [beta] galactosidase.
If you don't digest beans, try a supplement containing alpha galactosidase, or another carbohydrate-splitting enzyme.
In this paper, the dynamic behavior of [beta] galactosidase was studied in chemostat cultures of E. coli synchronized with respect to cell division by periodic phosphate feeding at a period equal to the bacterial doubling time.
However, the remarkable release of galactose during dismantling of fruit cell walls has led many researchers to study galactosidases due to their apparent involvement in the mobilization of galactose.
Extracts were prepared and galactosidase and ß-galactosidase assays were performed as described.
