Phosphorylation of a UDP-glucuronosyltransferase regulates substrate specificity.
UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) isozymes catalyze detoxification of numerous chemical toxins present in our daily diet and environment by conjugation to glucuronic acid. The special properties and enzymatic mechanism(s) that enable endoplasmic reticulum-bound UGT isozymes to convert innumerable structurally diverse lipophiles to excretable glucuronides are unknown. Inhibition of cellular UGT1...
متن کاملCloning and substrate specificity of a human phenol UDP-glucuronosyltransferase expressed in COS-7 cells.
A rat kidney phenol UDP-glucuronosyltransferase cDNA was used to isolate a human liver phenol UDP-glucuronosyltransferase cDNA by screening of a human liver cDNA library in the expression vector lambda gt11. The 2.4-kilobase cDNA contained an open reading frame of 1593 base pairs coding for a protein of 531 residues. The human liver cDNA was subcloned into the vector pKCRH2. Transfection of thi...
متن کاملDopamine is a low-affinity and high-specificity substrate for the human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A10.
The purpose of this work was to identify human UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) capable of glucuronidating dopamine. Using a sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method, we screened all 19 known human UGTs and found that only one enzyme, UGT1A10, catalyzed dopamine glucuronidation at substantial rates, yielding both dopamine-4-O-glucuronide (37.1 pmol/min/mg) and dopamine...
متن کاملInvestigation of the substrate specificity of a cloned expressed human bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase: UDP-sugar specificity and involvement in steroid and xenobiotic glucuronidation.
A cloned human bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) stably expressed in Chinese hamster V79 cells was used to assess the substrate specificity of the enzyme. The catalytic potential (Vmax/Km(bilirubin) of the enzyme with UDP-glucuronic acid (UDPGA) was 2-fold and 10-fold greater than that for UDP-xylose and UDP-glucose respectively. The formation of bilirubin mono- and di-conjugates was ...
متن کاملRegulated Phosphorylation of a Major UDP-glucuronosyltransferase Isozyme by Tyrosine Kinases Dictates Endogenous Substrate Selection for Detoxification*
Whereas UDP-glucuronosyltransferase-2B7 is widely distributed in different tissues, it preferentially detoxifies genotoxic 4-OH-estradiol and 4-OH-estrone (4-OHE(1)) with barely detectable 17β-estradiol (E(2)) conversion following expression in COS-1 cells. Consistent with the UDP-glucuronosyltransferase requirement for regulated phosphorylation, we discovered that 2B7 requires Src-dependent ty...
