General description

Chromogenic substrate for N-acetyl-glucosaminidase.

Application

N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) has been used:

as a substrate to assay N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG)
as a substrate to study chitinase ChiB1 activity
to assess degranulation using rat basophilic leukemia (RBL)-2H3 cells

Biochem/physiol Actions

4-Nitrophenyl N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminide (NP-GlcNAc) is a widely used hexosaminidase substrate. Enzymatic action cleaves the glycosidic bond and forms 4-nitrophenolate (pNP) which is measured at 405 nm. NP-GlcNAc can also be used in combination with diethylaminoethyl-a-cyclodextrin (DEn-CD) for a rapid and accurate rate assay method for b-N-acetylglucosaminidase. The cyclodextrin derivative is used as an additive to ionize 4-nitrophenol to yellow-colored 4-nitrophenoxide at a pH near 5, the pH optimum for the enzyme.

Tubulointerstitial damage plays an important role in chronic kidney disease (CKD) with proteinuria. Urinary kidney injury molecule 1 (KIM-1) reflects tubular KIM-1 and is considered a sensitive biomarker for early tubular damage. We hypothesized that a decrease in proteinuria by

Rapid enzymatic transglycosylation and oligosaccharide synthesis in a microchip reactor.

Ken-ichi Kanno et al.

Lab on a chip, 2(1), 15-18 (2004-04-22)

Glycosidase-promoted hydrolysis was performed in a microreaction channel. The result was compared with the reaction in a micro-test tube. Transgalactosylation on p-nitrophenyl-2-acetamide-2-deoxy-beta-D-glucopyranoside was also examined in a microreaction channel, because transglycosylation is a useful method for oligosaccharide synthesis. We examined

Purification, characterization and physiological significance of a chitinase from the pilei of Coprinopsis cinerea fruiting bodies.

FEMS microbiology letters, 363(12) (2016-05-18)

We purified a chitinase from pilei extractions of Coprinopsis cinerea fruiting bodies by ammonium sulfate precipitation and CM Sepharose cation exchange chromatography. MALDI-TOF/TOF MS analysis characterized this purified chitinase as a putative class V chitinase, ChiB1. ChiB1 hydrolyzed colloidal chitin
