Product Description
4-Methylumbelliferyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-Glucopyranoside is the fluorescent substrate of N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase.
4-Methylumbelliferyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranoside (CAS#: 37067-30-4) is a fluorogenic substrate for N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase and β-hexosaminidases. It has a molecular formula of C₁₈H₂₁NO₈ and a molecular weight of 379.36 g/mol, with a melting point of 212°C to 222°C. The compound is a synthetic glycoside widely utilized as a fluorogenic substrate in enzymatic assays. Upon enzymatic cleavage by β-hexosaminidases, 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) is released, and its fluorescence can be used to quantify enzyme activity.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
4-Methylumbelliferyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranoside targets the enzymes N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase and β-hexosaminidases. It serves as a fluorogenic substrate for these enzymes, releasing a fluorescent product upon enzymatic cleavage.
ln Vitro
The capacity of the enzyme to extract N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylgalactosamine residues bound by β-glycosidically from 4-Methylumbelliferyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-Glucopyranoside is a measure of its functionality[1].
The in vitro activity of this compound is its function as a fluorogenic substrate for β-hexosaminidases. Upon enzymatic cleavage, 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU) is released, and its fluorescence can be used to quantify β-hexosaminidase activity. The compound enables sensitive and quantitative enzyme activity analysis.
ln Vivo
4-Methylumbelliferyl-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-β-D-glucopyranoside is not used as a therapeutic agent. Its in vivo utility is limited to research applications involving the measurement of β-hexosaminidase activity in biological samples. The compound is not intended for systemic therapeutic use.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme assays for this compound involve incubating the fluorogenic substrate with β-hexosaminidase enzyme preparations in appropriate buffer conditions. The enzyme cleaves the substrate, releasing 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU), which is measured fluorimetrically. The fluorescence intensity is proportional to enzyme activity.
Cell Assay
For in vitro cellular experiments, this compound is typically used in cell-free systems for enzyme activity assays. The substrate can be added to cell lysates or purified enzyme preparations to assess β-hexosaminidase activity. The fluorogenic readout provides a sensitive and quantitative measure of enzyme activity.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments with this compound are not typically performed, as the compound is used as an in vitro enzyme substrate. However, the substrate can be used to measure β-hexosaminidase activity in samples collected from animal models.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of this compound have not been characterized, as it is a research-use enzyme substrate rather than a drug candidate. The compound has a molecular weight of 379.36 g/mol and a melting point of 212°C to 222°C. It should be stored under appropriate conditions.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for this compound has not been systematically evaluated, as it is intended for research applications only and not for therapeutic use. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed when handling this chemical reagent.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
