| Application: | β-glucuronidase is used as a reporter gene in GUS assays to monitor gene expression. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | β-glucuronidase catalyzes the breakdown of complex carbohydrates. In humans it converts conjugated bilirubin into the unconjugated form, making bilirubin suitable for reabsorption. |
| Other Notes: | One Sigma or modified Fishman unit will liberate 1.0 μg of phenolphthalein from phenolphthalein glucuronide per hr at 37 °C at pH 5.0 (30 min assay). |
