1 The deletion polymorphism of the enzyme UGT2B17 is known to correlate with the level of the testosterone to epitestosterone (T/E) ratio in urine specimen. Testosterone UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member B17 Homo sapiens
2 Due to the importance of the T/E ratio to detect testosterone abuse in doping analysis, a PCR-ELISA system (Genotype UGT test, AmplexDiagnostics) was established to identify the UGT2B17 phenotype in urine samples. Testosterone UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member B17 Homo sapiens
