Title: Stimulation of steroid glucuronidation by uridine diphosphate N-acetylglucosamine and by microsomal disruption. Author: Wilkinson J, Hallinan T. Journal: Biochem J; 1977 Oct 15; 168(1):125-7. PubMed ID: 413542. Abstract: Glucuronidation of oestrone and of oestradiol in microsomal fractions was markedly and significantly stimulated by UDP-N-acetylglucosamine and by ultrasonication: Triton X-100 also stimulated. This is consistent with compartmentation of UDP-glucuronyl-transferase. Stimulation by UDP-N-acetylglucosamine may be physiologically significant.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
