A composition includes a sugar source and inositol. The sugar source is one more sugars select from the group consisting of glucose, sucrose, sucrolose, tagatose, galactose, high fructose corn syrup, fructose, isoglucose, and rhamnose. The composition of sugar and inositol has an unique properties that prevents or limits the signaling of TNF- and associated pro-inflammatory cytokines when metabolized by an individual consuming the composition. Accordingly, the composition can be advantageously used to control blood glucose levels, treat diabetes and related conditions as well as treat diseases based on an inflammatory response.

The invention relates to a cellobiose phosphorylase, which catalyzes, among other things, the synthesis of cellobiose from glucose 1-phosphate and glucose. The cellobiose phosphorylase according to the invention can be understood as a mutation of the cellobiose phosphorylase from Cellulomonas uda. In comparison to cellobiose phosphorylase of the wild type, the cellobiose phosphorylase according to the invention is distinguished by improved activity and process stability, in particular temperature stability, and lower product inhibition and therefore is especially suitable for use in industrial processes.
