Description
Product Characteristics: The kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for in vitro quantitative measurement of UGT2B7 in human serum, plasma, tissue homogenates.
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the UDP-glycosyltransferase (UGT) family. UGTs serve a major role in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. This protein is localized in the microsome membrane, and has unique specificity for 3,4-catechol estrogens and estriol, suggesting that it may play an important role in regulating the level and activity of these potent estrogen metabolites.
