Protein Summary

UGT2B10 is a 528-amino acid transmembrane protein localized to the endoplasmic reticulum. It catalyzes the transfer of glucuronic acid from UDP-glucuronic acid to a variety of substrates, facilitating their excretion. The enzyme is critical for the clearance of drugs such as nicotine and opioids.
