|
Function |
UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. This isoform has specificity for phenols. Isoform 2 lacks transferase activity but acts as a negative regulator of isoform 1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19545173}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Microsome. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Liver. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed in liver, kidney, colon, esophagus and small intestine. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18004212}.
