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]. * **UniProt Summary**: UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. The major substrates of this isozyme are eugenol > 4-methylumbelliferone > dihydrotestosterone (DHT) > androstane-3-alpha,17-beta-diol (3-alpha-diol) > testosterone > androsterone (ADT). |UDPGT| |Glyco tran 28 C| |cellular glucuronidation| |UDP-glycosyltransferase activity| |uronic acid metabolic process| |glucuronate metabolic process| |retinoic acid binding| |glucuronosyltransferase activity| |monosaccharide metabolic process| |steroid metabolic process| |carbohydrate metabolic process| |monocarboxylic acid metabolic process| |intracellular membrane-bounded organelle| |carboxylic acid metabolic process| |endoplasmic reticulum membrane| |oxoacid metabolic process| |organic acid metabolic process| |lipid metabolic process| |small molecule metabolic process| |membrane| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
