In biochemistry, glucuronosyltransferase, also called UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, is "a family of enzymes accepting a wide range of substrates, including phenols, alcohols, amines, and fatty acids. They function as drug-metabolizing enzymes that catalyze the conjugation of UDPglucuronic acid to a variety of endogenous and exogenous compounds."[1]
Mutation in the UDP-glycuronosyltransferase gene cause Gilbert Syndrome[2] and Crigler-Najjar Syndrome types I[3] and II[4].
Anti-liver kidney microsome Type 3 (LKM3) autoantibodies may be present in chonic hepatitis D,[5] autoimmune hepatitis and chronic active hepatitis.[6]
Glucuronosyltransferase is part of the phase II drug metabolism of morphine and acetaminophen.[7]
Some drug interactions may be due to glucuronosyltransferase.[8]
