Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We investigated how the conserved mutation (Y486D) changed the kinetic parameters of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 and 1A6 (UGT1A1 and 1A6) for 2-amino-5-nitro-4-trifluoromethylphenol, which is a major metabolite of flutamide, a nonsteroidal antiandrogenic agent. METHODS: The wild-type or mutant cDNA-expressed UGT was co-incubated with 2-amino-5-nitro-4-trifluoromethylphenol...
