Continuous Spectrophotometric Assay for β - Glucuronidase
A continuous spectrophotometric assay has been developed for detecting β-glucuronidase activity. In the assay, Para-nitrophenyl β-D-glucuronide is cleaved to yield a chromophoric product. With the commercial E. coli enzyme, it is demonstrated that the reactions can be continuously monitored by the increase of absorbance at 405 nm. The method is highly sensitive and able to detect less than 1.4 ...
متن کاملA β-glucuronidase (GUS) based cell death assay.
We have developed a novel transient plant expression system that simultaneously expresses the reporter gene, β-glucuronidase (GUS), with putative positive or negative regulators of cell death. In this system, N. benthamiana leaves are co-infiltrated with a 35S driven expression cassette containing the gene to be analyzed, and the GUS vector pCAMBIA 2301 using Agrobacterium strain LBA4404 as a v...
متن کاملA High Throughput Assay for Discovery of Bacterial β-Glucuronidase Inhibitors
CPT-11 is a widely-used anti-cancer drug that is converted in vivo to its active metabolite, SN-38. In the liver, enzymes detoxify SN-38 by coupling it to a glucuronidate moiety and this inactive compound (SN-38G) is excreted into the gastrointestinal tract. In the intestine, commensal bacteria convert the SN-38G back to the active and toxic SN-38 using bacterial β-glucuronidase enzyme (GUS). T...
متن کاملPhenoxyacetohydrazide Schiff bases: β-glucuronidase inhibitors.
Phenoxyacetohydrazide Schiff base analogs 1-28 have been synthesized and their in vitro β-glucouoronidase inhibition potential studied. Compounds 1 (IC50=9.20±0.32 µM), 5 (IC50=9.47±0.16 µM), 7 (IC50=14.7±0.19 µM), 8 (IC50=15.4±1.56 µM), 11 (IC50=19.6±0.62 µM), 12 (IC50=30.7±1.49 µM), 15 (IC50=12.0±0.16 µM), 21 (IC50=13.7±0.40 µM) and 22 (IC50=22.0±0.14 µM) showed promising β-glucuronidase inhi...
متن کاملApplication of an improved glucuronidase assay method to the study of human blood beta-glucuronidase.
Previous conditions in which phenolphthalein glucuronide was employed as substrate (1) have proved unsatisfactory for the determination of glucuronidase in plasma, serum, and laked blood cells. Thus, low glucuronidase activities such as frequently occur in plasma could not be accurately measured or even approximated, owing to a combination of circumstances; i.e., too short an incubation period ...
