UGT
UDP-glucuronosyltransferase; Uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase
UGT is a type of catabolic enzyme that belongs to the family of detoxification enzymes. UGT consists of two subfamilies, UGT1 and UGT2. UGT1 consists of 5 exons and has a unique gene structure. There are thirteen exon 1s from UGT1A1 to UGT1A13P, and exon 2 to exon 5 are used in common for all mRNAs expressed from the gene. Each isoform of UGT1 results from differential splicing of exon1s to common exon 2-5, and has an unique spectrum of substrate specificity. In contrast, the genes of the UGT2 family consist of 6 exons, and all the enzymes have an individual set of exon 1 to exon 6. UGT involves in the detoxification and excretion of many xenobiotic and endogeneous substances in intrahepatic and extrahepatic tissues. The mutations of UGT1A1 cause hereditary unconjugated hyperbilirubinemias: Crigler-Najjar syndrome type I, type II and Gilbert syndrome.

3-Methyl-2-nitrophenol
0 ImagesCat. No.: HY-W006081CAS No.: 4920-77-83-Methyl-2-nitrophenol is a UDP-glucuronyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.17) acceptor substrate that can be confirmed to undergo glucuronidation catalyzed by the enzyme to form a glucuronide conjugate. 3-Methyl-2-nitrophenol functions as a substrate for conjugation, with glucuronidation forming a glucuronide conjugate that eliminates the parent compound’s characteristic yellow color. 3-Methyl-2-nitrophenol has higher lipid solubility that contributes to high glucuronidation conversion rate, and exhibits lower absorbance at 340 nm to act as a less interfering substrate for the NADH-NAD+-linked UDP-glucuronyltransferase assay.
