1 Although UDP-glucuronic acid (UDP-GlcUA) is most commonly employed as the cofactor by UGT1 and UGT2 family enzymes, UGT2B7 and several other enzymes can utilise both UDP-GlcUA and UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc), leading to the formation of glucuronide and glucoside conjugates. Uridine Diphosphate Glucuronic Acid UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member B7 Homo sapiens

Uridine Diphosphate Glucuronic Acid UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member B7 Homo sapiens
4 An investigation of UGT2B7 catalysed morphine glycosidation indicated that glucuronidation is the principal route of metabolism because the binding affinity of UDP-GlcUA is higher than that of UDP-Glc. Uridine Diphosphate Glucuronic Acid UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member B7 Homo sapiens
5 Currently, it is unclear which residues in the UGT2B7 cofactor binding domain are responsible for the preferential binding of UDP-GlcUA. Uridine Diphosphate Glucuronic Acid UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member B7 Homo sapiens
