Abstract excerpt
UDP glucurononosyltransferases (UGT) are a superfamily of enzymes that catalyse the conjugation of a range of structurally diverse drugs, environmental and endogenous chemicals with glucuronic acid. This process plays a significant role in the clearance and detoxification of many chemicals. Over the last decade the regulation and substrate profiles of UGT isoforms have been increasingly characterised. The...
