About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for UGT2A1: The olfactory neuroepithelium, which lines the posterior nasal cavity, is exposed to a wide range of odorants andairborne toxic compounds. Odorants, which are mostly small lipophilic molecules, enter the mucus flow and reach theodorant receptors on sensory neurons. Odorant sensing is generally a transient process, requiring an effective signaltermination, which could be provided by biotransformation of the odorant in the epithelial supporting cells.Xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes in the olfactory epithelium have been suggested to catalyze inactivation andfacilitate elimination of odorants.(supplied by OMIM) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: UD2A1_HUMAN, Q9Y4X1Function: UDP-glucuronosyltransferases catalyze phase II biotransformation reactions in which lipophilic substrates areconjugated with glucuronic acid to increase water solubility and enhance excretion. They are of major importance inthe conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. Active onodorants and seems to be involved in olfaction; it could help clear lipophilic odorant molecules from the sensoryepithelium

Subcellular location: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Potential)
Caution: According to HGNC, UGT2A1 and UGT2A2 are 2 separate genes. However, they share common exons at the C-terminus,suggesting that UGT2A1 and UGT2A2 are different isoforms encoded by the same locus
