7-Azido-4-methylcoumarin is a highly sensitive and selective fluorogenic H2S probe. 7-Azido-4-methylcoumarin is a tool for monitoring the activity of pyridoxal-5-phosphate (PLP)-dependent enzymes (e.g. cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS), cystathionine gamma-lyase (CGL) and tryptophan synthase (TS)) and to identify novel cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) inhibitors and activators. The aromatic azide moiety is selectively reduced in the presence of H2S, producing the fluorescent 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin (AMC) with a concomitant increase in fluorescence with ?ex = 365 nm and ?em = 450 nm. It has been characterized as a novel fluorescent photoactive probe for use in photoaffinity labeling of the substrate binding site of human phenol sulfotransferase (SULT1A1 or P-PST-1) Molecular Formula: C10H7N3O2 Molecular Weight: 201.18 Storage and Stability: Store at -20C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap.
