What is Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucuronic acid ammonium salt ?

The Uses of Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucuronic acid ammonium salt

Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucuronic acid ammonium salt has been used in the initiation of UDP-glucuronosyl transferase (UDGPT) assay towards ¹⁴C-testosterone in the liver S9 protein. It is suitable for use in UDGPT assay.

What are the applications of Application

Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucuronic acid ammonium salt is a cofactor used in the initiation of UDP-glucuronosyl transferase assay.

General Description

Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucuronic acid (UDPGA) is a cofactor, synthesized from UDPglucose and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) intracellularly by the catalytic activity of UDPglucose dehydrogenase. The concentration of UDPGA in a number of liver preparations ranges from 0.3-0.5 mM.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Uridine 5′-diphosphoglucuronic acid (UDGPA) is the glucuronic acid donor for the conjugation of bilirubin in the endoplasmic recticulum.
