4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucopyranoside is a fluorescent substrate targeting α-glucosidase, which releases the fluorescent moiety 4-methylumbelliferyl (4-MU) upon enzymatic cleavage. This compound exhibits pH-dependent fluorescence, with excitation wavelengths of 320 nm in acidic conditions and 360 nm in alkaline conditions, while its emission increases between 445-455 nm as pH decreases. 4-Methylumbelliferyl-α-D-Glucopyranoside serves as a valuable biomarker for assessing α-glucosidase activity in infant blood spot samples, particularly in the context of Fabry and Pompe diseases.
