A novel polymorphism in the promoter region of human UGT1A9 gene (UGT1A9*22) and its effects on the transcriptional activity
27 Apr 2004
Abstract excerpt
The human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, UGT1A9, catalyses glucuronidations of various endobiotics and xenobiotics. In the present study, all exons, exon-intron junctions, and the 5'-flanking region (-273 bp) of the UGT1A9 gene in a Japanese subject were sequenced. One base insertion of thymidine in a promoter region of the UGT1A9 gene resulting in A(T)10AT was identified compared to the reference sequence of...
