This enzyme belongs to the UDP-glycosyltransferase family and facilitates the attachment of glucuronic acid to small lipophilic molecules making them more water-soluble. UGT2B15 has a mass of approximately 56 kDa and finds its expression mainly in the liver but also in other tissues such as the prostate and testis. This distribution suggests its importance in the metabolism of various endogenous and exogenous compounds.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nEnzymes like UGT2B15 are important in the detoxification of substances. UGT2B15 facilitates the metabolism and clearance of steroid hormones including androgens and nonsteroids such as drugs. It does not operate as part of a larger complex but works individually to modify substrates. This process converts lipophilic drugs and hormones into more excretable forms aiding in homeostasis.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nUGT2B15 functions within important metabolic pathways such as steroid metabolism and drug detoxification pathways. In these pathways it interacts with other UGT family members such as UGT2B17 to ensure the efficient metabolism of various substrates. Their actions help regulate steroid levels and detoxify therapeutic drugs keeping physiological functions balanced by preventing the accumulation of potentially harmful compounds.\u003cbr\u003e\nResearchers associate UGT2B15 with conditions like prostate cancer and drug resistance. Altered expression or function of this enzyme may contribute to the development and progression of prostate cancer by affecting androgen metabolism. Additionally UGT2B15 plays a role in drug resistance often seen in therapies involving anti-cancer agents that require metabolic activation for clearance. Its activity connects with related proteins such as UGT2B17 influencing the progression and treatment responses in these conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46850122940585,"sku":"ab89274","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab89274","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
