General annotation (Comments)

Function	UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. Catalyzes the transfer of glucuronic acid from UDP-glucuronic acid to various aglycone molecules. Catalyzes the glucuronidation of monoterpenoid alcohols, such as (-)-borneol, (+)-menthol, and (-)- nopol. In addition, a number of simple phenolic compounds, such as hydroxybiphenyls, 7-hydroxylated coumarins, p-nitrophenol, and food-derived substances (e.g., naringenin and eugenol), and 4-methylumbelliferone are also substrates.
Catalytic activity	UDP-glucuronate + acceptor = UDP + acceptor beta-D-glucuronoside.
Subcellular location	Microsome membrane; Single-pass membrane protein Potential. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass membrane protein Potential.
Tissue specificity	Liver. Lower levels seen in the kidney and testis.
Induction	By phenobarbital.
Post-translational modification	N-glycosylated Probable.
Polymorphism	The sequence shown is that of the liver isozyme. The kidney isoform differs in 12 positions.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the UDP-glycosyltransferase family.
