Descriptor uridina difosfato del ácido glucurónico
Entry term(s) UDP ácido glucurónico
UDPAG
uridina ácido difosfoglucurónico
Scope note: Azúcar fosfonucleósido que sirve como fuente de ácido glucurónico para la biosíntesis de polisacáridos. También puede ser epimerizado a ácido UDP idurónico, el cual dona ácido idurónico a los polisacáridos. En animales, el ácido UDP glucurónico sirve para la formación de diversos glucosidurónidos que poseen varias agliconas.

Scope note: A nucleoside diphosphate sugar which serves as a source of glucuronic acid for polysaccharide biosynthesis. It may also be epimerized to UDP iduronic acid, which donates iduronic acid to polysaccharides. In animals, UDP glucuronic acid is used for formation of many glucosiduronides with various aglycones.
