Mechanistic studies of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase
Chemico-Biological Interactions, 1994 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.

Enzymatic studies of glucuronide formation in impaired liver. II. Activating effect of boiled liver extract on liver glucuronide formation [PDF]
, 1962 The effect of the boiled liver extract on the velocity of 4-methyl umbelliferone lucuronide formation by mouse liver homogenate was studied. The results were as follows: 1.

Analysis of the regulation of undecaprenyl diphosphate dephosphorylation in Escherichia coli
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.BacA, PgpB, and YbjG phosphatases are involved in undecaprenyl phosphate (C55P) synthesis in Escherichia coli. We analyzed the lipid contents and the gene expression in the gene‐disruption strains. Undecaprenyl diphosphate (C55PP) level increased in the bacA, ybjG double‐disruption strain, but C55P levels were similar in all strains.

Cloning, Expression and Characterization of UDP-Glucose Dehydrogenases
Life, 2021 Uridine diphosphate-glucose dehydrogenase (UGD) is an enzyme that produces uridine diphosphate-glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcA), which is an intermediate in glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) production pathways.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The study found that RPL6 is frequently upregulated in HCC tissues with extrahepatic metastasis. Elevated RPL6 bound to and increased the stability of HMGCS1 mRNA, thereby enhancing intracellular cholesterol levels. Subsequently, increased cholesterol promotes cancer metastasis in HCC by stabilizing HIF‐1α protein.

Salvage enzymes in nucleotide biosynthesis [PDF]
, 2007 Balanced pools of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs), the building blocks of DNA, and ribonucleoside triphosphates (NTPs), the precursors of RNA, are crucial for a controlled cell proliferation.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Metabolome in Central Nervous System Infections: A Study of Diagnostic Accuracy
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective To assess the diagnostic accuracy of metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for central nervous system (CNS) infections. Methods Patients were derived from three prospective cohort studies in the Netherlands. All studies included adults suspected of a CNS infection who underwent a diagnostic lumbar puncture.

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