Beta-galactosidase (β-gal) activity is closed related with senescence cells and aging-associated diseases, however, the traditional readout of β-gal activity based on X-gal staining was limited to low sensitivity in short incubation times and false positives in long incubation times. Here, we ...
Trans‐α‐xylosidase and trans‐β-galactosidase activities, widespread in plants, modify and stabilize xyloglucan structures. Franková, L. & Fry, S. C. (2012).The Plant Journal, 71(1), 45-60. Link to ArticleRead Abstract Cell-wall components are hydrolysed by numerous plant glycosidase and...
It is noteworthy that severalβ-Gal−/−tissues had between 1–10% residual enzyme activity, as previously reported [25]. This activity towards 4-methylumbelliferyl β-galactoside substrate could be due to other lysosomal enzymes, i.e., galactosidases, which are normally expressed in theβ-Ga...
