Galactose Metabolism Carbohydrate Metabolism · Cytosol

step 1 Irreversible/directional

Lactose + H2O → glucose + galactose

Converts Lactose H2O into Glucose Galactose

Notes

Brush-border lactase-phlorizin hydrolase (beta-galactosidase) hydrolyzes dietary lactose in the small-intestinal lumen/brush border. This digestive precursor reaction requires water; lactase deficiency impairs galactose generation from lactose but is distinct from inherited Leloir-pathway disorders.
