UGT2B17 - UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member B17 Gene
Also Known as BMND12; UDPGT2B17
Species: Homo sapiens
About UGT2B17
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 1222 orthologues, 21 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in small intestine (RPKM 270.0), colon (RPKM 223.4) and 4 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the uridine diphosphoglucuronosyltransferase protein family. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the transfer of glucuronic acid from uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid to a diverse array of substrates including steroid Hormones and lipid-soluble drugs. This process, known as glucuronidation, is an intermediate step in the metabolism of Steroids. Copy number variation in this gene is associated with susceptibility to osteoporosis.[provided by RefSeq, Apr 2010]
