4-Methylumbelliferyl β-D-cellobioside is an enzyme ligand. 4-Methylumbelliferyl β-D-cellobioside is used as a substrate to measure (1,4)-β-Glucanase activity in sediments.
4-Methylumbelliferyl β-D-cellobioside has been used as a substrate:
- to assay cellulase from?A. niger
- to determine the extracellular enzyme activity for 1,4-β-cellobiohydrolase
- to assay the activity of bound enzyme, endoglucanase I (EGIc) Trichoderma reesei?class II hydrophobins (HFBI)
ChEBI: 4-Methylumbelliferyl beta-D-cellobioside is a member of coumarins and a glycoside.
4-Methylumbelliferyl β-D-cellobioside is used as a substrate for cellulase assays. It is mainly used for activity staining of cellulases in polyacrylamide gels.
