3-Carboxyumbelliferyl acetate
3-Carboxyumbelliferyl acetate (compound ACC) is a fluorescent substrate that can be used to detect the activity of the Escherichia coli polysaccharide deacetylase PgaB, with a Km of 1.2 mM and a kcat of 0.013 s−1. 3-Carboxyumbelliferyl acetate undergoes acetate hydrolysis under the catalysis of E. coli PgaB. 3-Carboxyumbelliferyl acetate can be used in studies related to PgaB enzymatic activity and the mechanism of bacterial biofilm formation.

Biological Activity
|
PgaB 1.2 mM (Km) |
3-Carboxyumbelliferyl acetate (compound ACC) (up to 10 mM) serves as a soluble and stable substrate for purified E. coli PgaB, and is applicable for assaying the catalytic activity of PgaB, with a Km value of 1.2 mM and a kcat value of 0.013 s−1[1].
3-Carboxyumbelliferyl acetate serves as a competitive substrate in assays evaluating inhibitors of E. coli PgaB, which can confirm the competitive binding of active inhibitors to the PgaB active site[1].
