UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A4
BE0003544ProteinHumansUGT1A4
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 (PubMed:18177842, PubMed:24641623, PubMed:15231852). It is acted on by 42 drugs in DrugBank.
