4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucopyranoside is a fluorescent substrate for α-glucosidase, which releases the fluorescent moiety 4-methylumbelliferyl (4-MU) upon cleavage. 4-MU exhibits pH-dependent fluorescence excitation activity, with excitation wavelengths of 320 nm at low pH (1.97-6.72) and 360 nm at high pH (7.12-10.3). The emission wavelength of 4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucopyranoside increases with decreasing pH, ranging from 445-455 nm. This compound can be utilized as a biomarker for Fabry and Pompe diseases to quantify α-glucosidase activity in infant blood spot samples.
