The metal‐dependent deacetylase N‐acetyl‐1‐d‐myo‐inosityl‐2‐amino‐2‐deoxy‐α‐d‐glucopyranoside deacetylase (MshB) catalyzes the deacetylation of N‐acetyl‐1‐d‐myo‐inosityl‐2‐amino‐2‐deoxy‐α‐d‐glucopyranoside (GlcNAc‐Ins), the committed step in mycothiol (MSH) biosynthesis. MSH is the thiol redox buffer used by mycobacteria to protect against oxidative damage and is involved in the detoxification of...
Here we report a new fluorescence-based assay for measuring MshB (N-acetyl-1-d-myo-inosityl-2-amino-2-deoxy-α-d-glucopyranoside deacetylase) activity. The current assay for measuring MshB activity requires the fluorescent labeling of reaction mixtures and subsequent analysis using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), resulting in a significant amount of processing time per sample. Here we...
