Piscine UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1B [PDF]

open access: yesAquatic Toxicology, 2007
Glucuronidation is an important detoxification pathway for organic pollutants in fish. We report here the isolation and characterisation of UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) genes from the closely related marine flatfish, plaice (Pleuronectes platessa) and flounder (Platichthys flesus).

Crigler-Najjar Syndrome Type 2

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2006
Crigler-Najjar syndrome is a rare disorder of bilirubin metabolism with two distinct forms: type 1 and type 2. We report three patients with Crigler-Najjar syndrome type 2 (CN-2).

Biosynthesis of hydroxyl-linked glucuronides of short-chain bile acids by rat liver 3-hydroxysteroid UDP-glucuronosyltransferase.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1988
Microsomal preparations from livers of Sprague-Dawley rats catalyze the glucuronidation of 3 alpha-hydroxy-5 beta-H (3 alpha, 5 beta) short-chain bile acids (C20-C23), predominantly at the hydroxyl group, while the glucuronidation of 3 beta, 5 beta short-

Diverse biological effects of glycosyltransferase genes from Tartary buckwheat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum) is an edible cereal crop whose sprouts have been marketed and commercialized for their higher levels of anti-oxidants, including rutin and anthocyanin. UDP-glucose flavonoid glycosyltransferases (UFGTs)

Involvement of UDP-Glucuronosyltransferases and Sulfotransferases in the Excretion and Tissue Distribution of Resveratrol in Mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Resveratrol is a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound with various pharmacological activities. It is unknown whether the expression of metabolizing enzymes correlates with resveratrol levels in organs and tissues.

Bilirubin metabolism and UDP‐glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 variants in Asians: Pathogenic implications and therapeutic response

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2022
In the Asian general population, at least six single‐nucleotide variants (SNVs) in the UDP‐glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 gene have been identified: −3279T>G, −53A(TA)6TAA>A(TA)7TAA, 211G>A, 686C>A, 1091C>T, and 1456T>G.

Deficiency of Capicua disrupts bile acid homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Capicua (CIC) has been implicated in pathogenesis of spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 and cancer in mammals; however, the in vivo physiological functions of CIC remain largely unknown.

UDP-glucuronosyltransferase is involved in susceptibility of Chironomus kiiensis Tokunaga, 1936 (Diptera: Chironomidae) to insecticides

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) could transform various exogenous and endogenous compounds, which help detoxification of pesticides in insects. To investigate the role of UGTs in the detoxification metabolism of insecticides in Chironomus kiiensis ...

Hematologically important mutations: bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase gene mutations in Gilbert and Crigler-Najjar syndromes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Gilbert and Crigler-Najjar syndromes are familial unconjugated hyperbilirubinemias caused by genetic lesions involving a single complex locus encoding for bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1) gene.
