| Description | 4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Galactopyranoside (4MU-α-Gal) (4-MU-α-Gal) is a fluorogenic substrate of α-galactosidase. In addition to its use in characterizing novel α-galactosidases, 4-MU-α-Gal is used in assays to evaluate deficiency in α-galactosidase activity related to Fabry disease. |
| In vitro | 4-MU-α-Gal的水解作用会释放出具有荧光的产物4-MU，该产物的发射峰位于445-454 nm之间。4-MU的激发峰依赖于pH值，在pH 4.6、7.4和10.4时分别为330、370和385 nm[1]。 |
