Summary: Enables enzyme binding activity and glucuronosyltransferase activity. Involved in several processes, including biphenyl catabolic process; cellular glucuronidation; and cellular response to lipid. Located in endoplasmic reticulum. Part of cytochrome complex. Used to study Crigler-Najjar syndrome and bilirubin metabolic disorder. Biomarker of hyperthyroidism; type 1 diabetes mellitus; and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
