Description

2’-(N-Hexadecanoylamino)-4’-nitrophenyl-b-D-glucopyranoside is a synthetic substrate that is used in diagnostic procedures to identify the presence of lysosomal enzymes. The reaction product, resorufin, is a fluorogenic substrate that reacts with the enzyme hexanoyl coenzyme A reductase and can be detected by spectrophotometry. This experimentally insensitive compound has been used to measure the activity of hexanoyl coenzyme A reductase in skin fibroblasts from patients with ichthyosis vulgaris. Resorufin fluorescence is proportional to the amount of hexanoyl coenzyme A reductase present in cells.
