UGT2B15

Gene
UGT2B15
Protein
UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B15
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
530 amino acids
Function
UDPGTs are of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. This isozyme displays activity toward several classes of xenobiotic substrates, including simple phenolic compounds, 7-hydroxylated coumarins, flavonoids, anthraquinones, and certain drugs and their hydroxylated metabolites. It also catalyzes the glucuronidation of endogenous estrogens and androgens.
Similarity
Belongs to the UDP-glycosyltransferase family.

Protein
UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B15
Organism
Rattus norvegicus
Length
530 amino acids
Function
UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. Catalyzes the transfer of glucuronic acid from UDP-glucuronic acid to various aglycone molecules. Catalyzes the glucuronidation of monoterpenoid alcohols, such as (-)-borneol, (+)-menthol, and (-)- nopol. In addition, a number of simple phenolic compounds, such as hydroxybiphenyls, 7-hydroxylated coumarins, p-nitrophenol, and food-derived substances (e.g. naringenin and eugenol), and 4-methylumbelliferone are also substrates.

Belongs to the UDP-glycosyltransferase family.
