UGT1A1 also known as UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 is an enzyme critical for conjugating bilirubin and various hormones with glucuronic acid. It has a molecular mass of approximately 54 kDa. The enzyme primarily localizes in the liver but is also found in other tissues such as the intestine and kidney. UGT1A1's role involves transforming lipophilic molecules into more water-soluble forms facilitating their excretion from the body.
Biological function summary

UGT1A1 contributes to the detoxification processes by mediating the conjugation of bilirubin a byproduct of red blood cell breakdown. This enzyme is part of the UGT1 complex which includes several enzymes sharing a similar expression pattern and function. Through its activity UGT1A1 helps maintain homeostasis and prevents the buildup of potentially toxic substances in the organism.

Pathways

UGT1A1 is a significant component of the glucuronidation pathway. This pathway is essential for phase II metabolism in the liver working alongside other proteins like UGT1A6 and UGT1A9. The glucuronidation pathway transforms hydrophobic compounds into hydrophilic derivatives for easier elimination. Additionally UGT1A1 activity affects hormone metabolism particularly in the pathways involving estrogen and thyroid hormones.

Mutations or polymorphisms in UGT1A1 relate to conditions such as Gilbert’s syndrome and Crigler-Najjar syndrome. These diseases involve impaired bilirubin clearance leading to jaundice. Connection with other proteins like albumin highlights the collaborative role in bilirubin transport and clearance. Studying UGT1A1 and its interactions continues to be critical for understanding and treating these metabolic disorders.

General info

Function

Isoform 1. UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) that catalyzes phase II biotransformation reactions in which lipophilic substrates are conjugated with glucuronic acid to increase the metabolite's water solubility, thereby facilitating excretion into either the urine or bile (PubMed : 12181437, PubMed : 15472229, PubMed : 18004206, PubMed : 18004212, PubMed : 18719240, PubMed : 19830808, PubMed : 23288867). Essential for the elimination and detoxification of drugs, xenobiotics and endogenous compounds (PubMed : 12181437, PubMed : 18004206, PubMed : 18004212). Catalyzes the glucuronidation of endogenous estrogen hormones such as estradiol, estrone and estriol (PubMed : 15472229, PubMed : 18719240, PubMed : 23288867). Involved in the glucuronidation of bilirubin, a degradation product occurring in the normal catabolic pathway that breaks down heme in vertebrates (PubMed : 17187418, PubMed : 18004206, PubMed : 19830808, PubMed : 24525562). Also catalyzes the glucuronidation the isoflavones genistein, daidzein, glycitein, formononetin, biochanin A and prunetin, which are phytoestrogens with anticancer and cardiovascular properties (PubMed : 18052087, PubMed : 19545173). Involved in the glucuronidation of the AGTR1 angiotensin receptor antagonist losartan, a drug which can inhibit the effect of angiotensin II (PubMed : 18674515). Involved in the biotransformation of 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38), the pharmacologically active metabolite of the anticancer drug irinotecan (PubMed : 12181437, PubMed : 18004212, PubMed : 20610558).. Isoform 2. Lacks UGT glucuronidation activity but acts as a negative regulator of isoform 1.
