β-galactosidase(β-GAL) Assay Kit

β-Galactosidase (β-GAL, EC 3.2.1.23) is widely present in animals, plants, microorganisms, and cultured cells. It can catalyze the hydrolysis of β-galactosidic bonds in β-galactoside compounds and also exhibit galactosyltransferase activity. β-GAL not only releases stored energy for the rapid growth of plants, but also catalyzes the hydrolysis of terminal galactose residues in polysaccharides, glycoproteins, and galactolipids during normal polysaccharide metabolism, cell wall component metabolism, and cell wall degradation during senescence, thereby releasing free galactose.

β-GAL decomposes p-nitrophenyl-β-D-galactopyranoside to generate p-nitrophenol, which has a maximum absorption peak at 400 nm. The activity of β-GAL can be calculated by measuring the rate of increase in absorbance.
