Q on palatinose/isomaltulose

[Frederik Boernke]

Dear netters,

can anybody provide some information about which organism and by what
pathway can produce palatinose/isomaltulose either from sucrose or any
other precursor. A literature search didn't yield any hits.
Any hints will be appreciated.

Thanks
Ricky
