Function | UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. 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 and colon. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed in colon, esophagus and small intestine; isoform 2 but not isoform 1 is expressed in liver or kidney (PubMed:18004212). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18004212, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9271343}. |
