Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Glucuronidase (GUSB) is a lysosomal enzyme, that degrades glucuronate-containing glycosaminoglycans.[1] β-glucuronidase, obtained from abalone has the ability to hydrolyze samples, that has high analyte concentrations.[2] Absence of β-glucuronidase results in mucopolysaccharidosis type VII (MPSVII), which leads to lysosomal storage in the brain.[1]

Unit Definition

One Sigma or modified Fishman unit will liberate 1.0 μg of phenolphthalein from phenolphthalein glucuronide per hr at 37 °C at pH 3.8 (30 min assay).

Physical form

Supplied as an aqueous solution containing L-proline, ammonium acetate and sodium azide
