l General Information

Product Name

β-Glucuronidase from Helix pomatia

General deion

β-Glucuronidase Type H-2 from Helix pomatia is a crude solution of enzymes derived from the Roman snail. Many β-glucuronidases derived from mollusks also contain sulfatase activity.

Synonym

β-D-Glucuronide glucuronosohydrolase

Assay

Type H-1, partially purified powder, ≥300,000 units/g solid; ≥10,000 units/g solid sulfatase (secondary activity)

CAS Number

9001-45-0

MDL number

MFCD00130629

Suitability

BioReagent

l Physical and Chemical Information

Appearance

White to Light Yellow to Light Brown Powder

l Biological Information

Biochem/Physiol Actions

Used for the hydrolysis of glucuronide conjugates in urinary metabolite analysis

β-glucuronidase catalyzes the breakdown of complex carbohydrates. In humans it converts conjugated bilirubin into the unconjugated form, making bilirubin suitable for reabsorption.

β-Glucuronidase from Helix pomatia is a mixture of enzymes derived from the Roman snail.

Optimal pH:

• Glucuronidase activity: 4.5 to 5.0

• Sulfatase activity: ~6.2

Inhibitors: D-glucuronic acid, D-galacturonic acid, D-glucaro-1, 4-lactone

Application

β-glucuronidase is used as a reporter gene in GUS assays to monitor gene .

Unit Definition

One modified Fishman unit will liberate 1.0 μg of phenolphthalein from phenolphthalein glucuronide per hr at 37 °C at pH 5.0 (30 min assay).

Sulfatase Unit Definition: One unit of sulfatase will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole p-nitrocatechol sulfate per hr at pH 5.0 at 37 °C.
