sucrase-isomaltase, the group of Glycoside hydrolase family 31

Gene summary

This gene encodes a sucrase-isomaltase enzyme that is expressed in the intestinal brush border. The encoded protein is synthesized as a precursor protein that is cleaved by pancreatic proteases into two enzymatic subunits sucrase and isomaltase. These two subunits heterodimerize to form the sucrose-isomaltase complex. This complex is essential for the digestion of dietary carbohydrates including starch, sucrose and isomaltose. Mutations in this gene are the cause of congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010]

Manifestation: Gastrointestinal

Intervention: Gastrointestinal

Rationale: Sucrose and other carbohydrate ingestion results in osmotic diarrhea, and dietary/medical therapy (eg, sucrose-reduced diet, treatment with sacrosidase) can be effective

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_001041.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Plays an important role in the final stage of carbohydrate digestion. Isomaltase activity is specific for both alpha-1,4- and alpha-1,6-oligosaccharides. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20356844}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Congenital sucrase-isomaltase deficiency (CSID) [MIM:222900]: Autosomal recessive intestinal disorder that is clinically characterized by fermentative diarrhea, abdominal pain, and cramps upon ingestion of sugar. The symptoms are the consequence of absent or drastically reduced enzymatic activities of sucrase and isomaltase. The prevalence of CSID is 0.02 % in individuals of European descent and appears to be much higher in Greenland, Alaskan, and Canadian native people. CSID arises due to post-translational perturbations in the intracellular transport, polarized sorting, aberrant processing, and defective function of SI. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10903344, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11340066, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14724820, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16329100, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8609217}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
