4-Methylumbelliferyl α-ʟ-fucopyranoside，100MG，M8527-100MG，Sigma

General description

Substrate for α-L-fucosidase

Application

4-Methylumbelliferyl α-L-fucopyranoside has been used:

• as a substrate in α-L-fucosidase 1 (α-L-FUCA-1) enzyme assays to convert it to the fluorescent product 4-methylumbelliferone (4MU) for finding the distribution of the membrane-associated α-L-FUCA-1 of human sperm
• as a fluorogenic substrate in enzyme assays to evaluate the stability of both the seminal plasma and membrane-associated α-l-fucosidase
• as a substrate to measure the enzymatic activity of α-L-FUCA-1 of cell extracts from TPC-1, BCPAP, 8505C, and CAL62 cell lines
