Journal ArticleDOI

Nomenclature update for the mammalian UDP glycosyltransferase (UGT) gene superfamily.

TL;DR: The UGT nomenclature is updated to include new genes identified in the human, mouse and rat genomes and in other mammalian species to prevent confusion when the same gene is given different names.
Journal ArticleDOI

The UDP-glucuronosyltransferases: their role in drug metabolism and detoxification.

TL;DR: Recent advances in the understanding of the functional roles of UGT, their regulation and tissue expression, and clinical significant factors (ontogeny, interactions and polymorphisms) that affect glucuronidation activity in humans are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural and functional studies of udp-glucuronosyltransferases*

TL;DR: Evidence from experiments on UGT interactions with inhibitors directed at specific amino acids, photoaffinity labeling, and analysis of amino acid alignments suggest that UDP-GIcUA interacts with residues in both the N- and C-terminal domains, whereas aglycon binding sites are localized in the N -terminal domain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Drug glucuronidation in humans.

TL;DR: Factors known to influence the pharmacokinetics of glucuronidated drugs in man, presumably via an effect on specific glucuronosyltransferases, include age, cigarette smoking, diet, certain disease states, coadministered drugs, ethnicity, genetics and hormonal effects.
