Disease relevance of UGT1A1

 

High impact information on UGT1A1

  • In addition, characterization of the UGT1A locus and genetic studies directed at understanding the role of bilirubin glucuronidation and the biochemical basis of the clinical symptoms found in unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia have uncovered the structural gene polymorphisms associated with Crigler-Najjar's and Gilbert's syndrome [4].
  • These findings indicate a genetic predisposition to the metabolism of irinotecan, suggesting that patients with low UGT1A1 activity, such as those with Gilbert's syndrome, may be at an increased risk for irinotecan toxicity [5].
  • The affinities for bilirubin of B-UGT1 expressed in COS cells and B-UGT from human liver microsomes were similar with Km of 5.1 +/- 0.9 microM and 7.9 +/- 5.3 microM, respectively [6].
  • Identification of two single base substitutions in the UGT1 gene locus which abolish bilirubin uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase activity in vitro [7].
  • CONCLUSIONS: Our patient represents a case of digenic mixed hyperbilirubinemia-a distinct type of constitutive jaundice resulting from coinherited defects in ABCC2/MRP2 and UGT1A1 genes [8].

Enzymatic interactions of UGT1A1

  • In humans, CYP1A2 catalyzed N-hydroxylation and subsequent UGT1A-mediated glucuronidation is a dominant pathway in the metabolism of PhIP [27].
 

Regulatory relationships of UGT1A1

 

Other interactions of UGT1A1

  • METHODS: The full sequence of the UGT1A1 gene was identified for 212 G6PD-deficient and 232 control male neonates by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) [1].
  • UGT1A10, a newly discovered UGT1A gene product, is expressed only in biliary and not hepatocellular tissue and is also significantly down-regulated in cholangiocellular carcinoma [30].
  • The K(i) values were 3.3 +/- 0.8 micromol/L for UGT1A1 and 31.9 +/- 3.3 micromol/L for UGT1A9 [24].
  • However, polymorphic expression of UGT1A1 (29%), UGT1A3 (21%), and UGT1A6 (36%) was detected [31].
  • Irinotecan is subjected to be shunted between CYP3A4 mediated oxidative metabolism to form two inactive metabolites APC or NPC and tissue carboxylesterase mediated hydrolysis to form SN-38 which is eventually detoxified via glucuronidation by UGT1A1 to form SN-38G [32].
