Presence of glucuronyltransferase activity in human lymphocytes
Abstract:
Human lymphocytes contain glucuronyltransferase activity. This enzyme requires a high concentration of uridine diphosphoglucuronic acid and can be measured with testosterone as a substrate. This finding is of interest because glucuronidation is a deactivating process for many pharmacologically active compounds that are substrates of glucuronyltransferase.
