Polymorphic expression of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase UGTlA gene in human colorectal cancer.
BackgroundPolymorphism of genes encoding drug-metabolizing enzymes is known to play an important role in increased susceptibility of colorectal cancer. UGT1A gene locus has been suggested to define tissue-specific glucuronidation activity.

Biophysical characterization of the outer membrane polysaccharide export protein and the polysaccharide co-polymerase protein from Xanthomonas campestris [PDF]
This study investigated the structural and biophysical characteristics of GumB and GumC, two Xanthomonas campestris membrane proteins that are involved in xanthan biosynthesis. Xanthan is an exopolysaccharide that is thought to be a virulence factor that

Proteome‐Wide Analysis of Human Deletions
ABSTRACT Protein deletions are frequent among both natural and pathogenic variations. Many of them are misclassified in variation databases and the literature. Nonsense‐mediated decay prevents the expression of many nucleotide deletions. Many variants classified as protein deletions are not expressed at all.

Insights Into Gut Barrier Dysfunction and Metabolic Alterations in Mycophenolate‐Induced Enteropathy
ABSTRACT Mycophenolic acid (MPA) is a widely used immunosuppressant whose use is often limited by gastrointestinal toxicity. Gut bacterial hydrolysis of liver‐derived MPA glucuronides increases local exposure to MPA, potentially impairing epithelial barrier function and cellular metabolism.

Regulation of Sulfotransferase and UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase Gene Expression by the PPARs
During phase II metabolism, a substrate is rendered more hydrophilic through the covalent attachment of an endogenous molecule. The cytosolic sulfotransferase (SULT) and UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) families of enzymes account for the majority of ...

Mechanistic studies of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase
Bisubstrate reaction kinetics and product inhibition studies were used to characterize the kinetic mechanism of a partially purified uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UDPGT). These studies indicate that the reaction most likely occurs via a random order sequential mechanism.

Age‐ and sex‐associated variability in lamotrigine prescription patterns and clearance
Abstract Objective Lamotrigine is one of the most widely prescribed antiseizure medication (ASM) and mood stabilizer in the United States due to its favorable side‐effect profile, lower risk of teratogenicity, and minimal drug–drug interactions.
