General Description

• Sap-feeding insects such as ants and aphids produce melezitose to maintain osmotic balance

• Melezitose is produced by some plants as an insect attractant and acts as a metabolite

Applications

• Melezitose can be hydrolyzed to glucose and turanose through alpha-glucosidase activity and can be used for the study of enzyme activity

• Melezitose can be used to distinguish certain strains of bacteria; characterization of phenotype based on the presence or absence of certain sugars assists identification
