Gene nameUGT2B17
Protein nameUDP-glucuronosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.17)
UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B17 (UDPGT 2B17) (UGT2B17) (EC 2.4.1.17) (C19-steroid-specific UDP-glucuronosyltransferase) (C19-steroid-specific UDPGT)
Synonyms
DescriptionFUNCTION: UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) that catalyzes phase II biotransformation reactions in which lipophilic substrates are conjugated with glucuronic acid to increase the metabolite's water solubility, thereby facilitating excretion into either the urine or bile . Catalyzes the glucuronidation of endogenous steroid hormones such as androgens (epitestosterone, androsterone) and estrogens (estradiol, epiestradiol) . .
