Isolation and characterization of UGT2B15(Y85): a UDP-glucuronosyltransferase encoded by a polymorphic gene.

Pharmacogenetics - 1 Aug 1997

Abstract excerpt

Genetic polymorphisms occur in many of the drug metabolizing enzymes. However, the effect of polymorphisms in the genes encoding phase II drug metabolizing UDP-glucuronosyltransferases is still undescribed, despite the many reported cases of variations in glucuronidation activities. Characterization of the UGT2B15(Y85) cDNA, which was isolated from human prostate and LNCaP cell cDNA libraries, revealed 20...
