5-BROMO-4-CHLORO-3-INDOLYL B-D- Usage And Synthesis
Chemical Properties
White Solid
Uses
5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl β-D-glucuronide cyclohexylammonium salt has been used as a histochemical reagent in X-GLUC staining.
Uses
Suitable for use in selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac+ phenotype. X-GlcA has been used in histochemical staining of root sections for light microscopic observation.
General Description
X-GlcA is a chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase, used to determine the presence or absence of a cloned DNA insert in bacteria growing on agar plates. X-GlcA is designed to replace X-Gal in blue-white selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac+ phenotype.
Biochem/physiol Actions
5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-D-glucuronide sodium salt (X-GlcA) is a colorless substrate. The pre-immobilized X-GlcA can be converted by β-glucuronidase enzyme, synthesised by?Escherichia coli.
