CF-MUP, sodium salt
Superior alternative to MUP
Although MUP is widely used for detecting phosphatases in solution it is not well suited for living cell or continuous assays since MU (4-methylumbelliferone), the enzymatic product, which only develops maximum fluorescence at pH value of >10. Thus it is also difficult to use MUP for the detection of phosphatases that have acidic optimal pH range such as acid phosphatases. AAT Bioquest is pleased to offer CF-MUP Plus that is developed to address this pH limitation associated with MUP substrates. CF-MU exhibits maximum fluorescence above pH 5.0, thus CF-MUP substrate can be well used for continuous phosphatase assays. It can also be used for the assays that require acidic pH such as acid phosphatases and some protein phosphatases.
Detection of acid phosphatase activity CF-MUP and MUP. The concentration of the two substrates (initially approximately 10 uM) were matched by normalizing the obsorbance at 319 nm (pH = 10) to a value of 0.52 (assuming the extinction coefficient of each substrate was approximately equivalent). The resulting fluorescence signal was recorded using Ex/Em = 360/450 nm.
