Abstract excerpt
The vertebrate UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) are membrane-bound enzymes of the endoplasmic reticulum that process both endogenous and exogenous substrates. The human UGTs are well known biologically, but biophysical understanding is scarce, largely because of problems in purification. The one resolved crystal structure covers the C-terminal domain of the human UGT2B7. Here, we present a homology model of...
