4-METHYLUMBELLIFERYL 2-ACETAMIDO-2-DEOXY-ALPHA-D-GALACTOPYRANOSIDE

Description:
4-Methylumbelliferyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranoside is a synthetic compound commonly used as a substrate in biochemical assays, particularly for the detection of specific glycosidase enzymes. This compound features a 4-methylumbelliferone moiety, which is a fluorescent marker, allowing for sensitive detection when the substrate is hydrolyzed by enzymes. The presence of the 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-galactopyranoside structure indicates that it is a derivative of galactose, modified to include an acetamido group, which enhances its solubility and stability in biological systems. The compound is typically used in research settings to study enzyme activity, particularly in the context of carbohydrate metabolism. Its fluorescence properties make it advantageous for real-time monitoring in various assays. Additionally, it is important to handle this compound with care, following appropriate safety protocols, as with any chemical reagent used in laboratory settings.
