Metabolite Identification
Common NameUridine diphosphate glucuronic acid
DescriptionUridine diphosphate glucuronic acid, also known as udpglucuronate or UDP-a-D-glucuronic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as gamma butyrolactones. Gamma butyrolactones are compounds containing a gamma butyrolactone moiety, which consists of an aliphatic five-member ring with four carbon atoms, one oxygen atom, and bears a ketone group on the carbon adjacent to the oxygen atom. Uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within cattle, uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, 2-methoxyestrone and uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid can be converted into 2-methoxyestrone 3-glucuronide and uridine 5'-diphosphate through the action of the enzyme UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1-1. In addition, estrone and uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid can be converted into estrone glucuronide and uridine 5'-diphosphate; which is mediated by the enzyme UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1-1. In cattle, uridine diphosphate glucuronic acid is involved in the metabolic pathway called the estrone metabolism pathway.

Cell wall/membrane/envelope biogenesis
Specific function:
Catalyzes the addition of GlcNAc or GlcUA monosaccharides to the nascent hyaluronan polymer. Therefore, it is essential to hyaluronan synthesis a major component of most extracellular matrices that has a structural role in tissues architectures and regulates cell adhesion, migration and differentiation. This is one of the isozymes catalyzing that reaction and it is particularly responsible for the synthesis of high molecular mass hyaluronan. Required for the transition of endocardial cushion cells into mesenchymal cells, a process crucial for heart development. May also play a role in vasculogenesis. High molecular mass hyaluronan also play a role in early contact inhibition a process which stops cell growth when cells come into contact with each other or the extracellular matrix (By similarity).
