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

1 Oct 2005

Abstract excerpt

Several novel UDP glycosyltransferase (UGT) genes, mainly UDP glucuronosyltransferases, have been identified in the human, mouse and rat genomes and in other mammalian species. This review provides an update of the UGT nomenclature to include these new genes and prevent the confusion that arises when the same gene is given different names. The new genes are named following previously established recommendations,...
