Isomaltulose synthase (PalI), also known as sucrose isomerase, catalyses the isomerisation of sucrose to produce isomaltulose (alpha-D-glucosylpyranosyl-1,6-D-fructofuranose) and trehalulose (alpha-D-glucosylpyranosyl-1,1-D-fructofuranose) as the main products with residual amounts of glucose and fructose isomaltulose and trehalulose, two functional isomers of sucrose, have been suggested as non-cariogenic alternatives to sucrose and are widely used in health products and the food industry.
