UDP-GLUCURONYL TRANSFERASE AND POLYNUCLEOTIDE ENCODING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention provides a novel UDP-glucuronosyltransferase and a polynucleotide encoding the same (for example, a polynucleotide comprising a polynucleotide consisting of one nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of the nucleotide sequence at positions 1 to 1359 in the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 4, the nucleotide sequence at positions 1 to 1365 in the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 10, the nucleotide sequence at positions 1 to 1371 in the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 12, and the nucleotide sequence at positions 1 to 1371 in the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 22; or a polynucleotide comprising a polynucleotide encoding a protein having one amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ IDNOS: 5, 11, 13 and 23), etc. This provides a novel UDP-glucuronosyltransferase with a broad substrate specificity.
