Maltase-glucoamylase is an alpha-glucosidase digestive enzyme. It consists of two subunits with differing substrate specificity. Recombinant enzyme studies have shown that its N-terminal catalytic domain has highest activity against maltose, while the C-terminal domain has a broader substrate specificity and activity against glucose oligomers.<ref name="pmid18356321">{{cite journal |vauthors=Quezada-Calvillo R, Sim L, Ao Z, Hamaker BR, Quaroni A, Brayer GD, Sterchi EE, Robayo-Torres CC, Rose DR, Nichols BL | title = Luminal starch substrate "brake" on maltase-glucoamylase activity is located within the glucoamylase subunit | journal = J.

Maltase-glucoamylase, intestinal is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MGAMgene.[1][2]
Maltase-glucoamylase is an alpha-glucosidase digestive enzyme. It consists of two subunits with differing substrate specificity. Recombinant enzyme studies have shown that its N-terminal catalytic domain has highest activity against maltose, while the C-terminal domain has a broader substrate specificity and activity against glucose oligomers.[3] In the small intestine, this enzyme works in synergy with sucrase-isomaltase and alpha-amylase to digest the full range of dietary starches.
