4-Methylumbelliferyl ?-D-Galactopyranoside-6-sulfate (sodium salt) (4-MU-Gal-6S) is a fluorogenic substrate used to quantify N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulphatase (GALNS) activity.{41061} 4-MU-Gal-6S is cleaved by GALNS to release the fluorescent moiety 4-MU. 4-MU fluorescence is pH-dependent with excitation maxima of 320 and 360 nm at low (1.97-6.72) and high (7.12-10.3) pH, respectively, and an emission maximum ranging from 445 to 455 nM, increasing as pH decreases.{27251} It has been used to detect Morquio disease type A, a lysosomal storage disorder in which GALNS is deficient.{41061} 4-MU-Gal-6S can be used to assess GALNS activity in a very small blood volume to determine the extent of deficiency.{41060}
