Disease relevance of AIDS081053

• Hydrolysis of 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate was detected in recombinant E. coli strains grown in phosphate-rich medium, and the activity persisted in assay buffers that contained phosphate [1].
• Mutants of Vibrio cholerae 01 strain 0395 (classical) mutated in genes encoding secretory or cell surface proteins were induced by TnphoA mutagenesis and were selected as blue colonies on L-agar plates containing 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate [2].
• Cultured cells infected with cytomegalovirus, adenovirus, or herpes simplex virus were hybridized with homologous biotinylated probes, and showed strong purple signals with alkaline phosphatase in the presence of nitroblue tetrazolium and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate [3].

High impact information on AIDS081053

• A spontaneous mutant of F. novicida defective for growth in macrophages was isolated on LB media containing the chromogenic phosphatase substrate 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (X-p) and designated GB2 [4].
• The amplified detection of a target DNA, based on the alkaline phosphatase oxidative hydrolysis of the soluble 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indoyl phosphate to the insoluble indigo product as an amplification path, is addressed by two different sensing configurations [5].
• Alkaline phosphatase is used as a labeled enzyme to the anti-E. coli O157:H7 antibody, amplifying the mass change associated with the antibody-antigen binding reaction by biocatalytic precipitation of 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate in a pH 10.0 PBS solution [6].
• Quantification was accomplished by developing blots with a color assay using nitro blue tetrazolium (NBT) and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (BCIP), scanned and analyzed by densitometry [7].
• S. agalactiae (Group B streptococci, GBS), E. faecalis, S. pyogenes, S. gordonii, and E. coli containing pDC123 displayed a blue colonial phenotype on agar containing 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (X-p), which was readily distinguished from that of colonies containing the parent plasmid pJS3 [8].

Biological context of AIDS081053

• By using V. cholerae as a model system, insertion mutants carrying active phoA gene fusions were identified as colonies expressing alkaline phosphatase, which appeared blue on agar containing the indicator 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate [9].
• This work describes the quantitative analysis and enzyme kinetics for alkaline phosphatase (AP) and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indoxyl phosphate (BCIP) in solution obtained by applying known solubilization methodology from the textiles industry to the enzymatic product [10].

Anatomical context of AIDS081053

• Questioned semen stains can be swabbed with a moist cotton swab, and the prostatic acid phosphatase (SAP) activity transferred to the swab identified through assay with 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (BCIP) [11].

Associations of AIDS081053 with other chemical compounds

• The biocatalyzed precipitation of 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate by alkaline phosphatase on the chips in pH 10 PBS buffer containing 0.1 M MgCl2 increased the electron-transfer resistance for a redox probe of Fe(CN)6(3-/4-) at the electrode-solution interface or the electrode resistance itself [12].
• After incubation of the dipsticks in serum, washing of the reaction zone under tap water, and binding of an anti-IgE alkaline phosphatase conjugate, 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate/nitro blue tetrazolium was used as substrate, forming an IgE concentration-dependent colored precipitate on the S-layer surface [13].

Gene context of AIDS081053

• Recombinant phoA- clones are selected on indicator plates containing 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate [14].
• The phoU mutant could be easily screened on agar plates containing 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-phosphate (X-P(i)) after N-methyl-N'-vitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (NTG) mutagenesis [15].
• These three species exhibit phosphatase activity when grown on media containing chromogenic substrates such as 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate (XP) [16].
• The nitrocellulose sheet was successively incubated with human sera known to contain IgE that binds to rapeseed proteins, alkaline phosphatase-conjugated goat anti-human IgE and 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl phosphate and nitroblue tetrazolium [17].
