1UYP - PubMed Abstract: 
Thermotoga maritima invertase (beta-fructosidase) hydrolyzes sucrose to release fructose and glucose, which are major carbon and energy sources for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The name "invertase" was given to this enzyme over a century ago, because the 1:1 mixture of glucose and fructose that it produces was named "invert sugar ...
