Lactase (EC 3.2.1.108) is an enzyme produced by many organisms and is essential to the complete digestion of whole milk. It breaks down the sugar lactose...

extremely rare genetic disorder in which little or no lactase is made from birth. The reduction of lactase production starts typically in late childhood or...

Lactase persistence or lactose tolerance is the continued activity of the lactase enzyme in adulthood, allowing the digestion of lactose in milk. In most...

parts of Central Africa maintain lactase production into adulthood due to selection for genes that continue lactase production. In many of these areas...
