4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucopyranoside  (Synonyms: 4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucose; 4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucoside; 4-MU-α-D-Glucopyranoside)

Cat. No.: HY-137873
Handling Instructions

4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucopyranoside (4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucose; 4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucoside) is a fluorogenic substrate for α-glucosidase. 4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-glucopyranoside is cleaved by α-glucosidase to release the fluorescent moiety 4-methylumbelliferyl (4-MU). 4-MU fluorescence is pH-dependent with excitation maxima of 320 and 360 nm at low (1.97-6.72) and high pH (7.12-10.3), respectively, and an emission maximum ranging from 445 to 455 nm, increasing as pH decreases. 4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-glucopyranoside has been used to quantify α-glucosidase activity in infant blood spot samples as a biomarker of Fabry and Pompe diseases, lysosomal storage disorders characterized by a deficiency in the enzyme.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
