UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B17
BE0003680ProteinHumansUGT2B17
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:16595710, PubMed:18719240, PubMed:19022937,... It is acted on by 13 drugs in DrugBank.
