Summary
Predicted to enable UDP-glycosyltransferase activity. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Is expressed in nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in osteoporosis. Orthologous to several human genes including UGT2A2 (UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member A2); UGT2A3 (UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member A3); and UGT2B10 (UDP glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member B10).
