Biosynthesis of hydroxyl-linked glucuronides of short-chain bile acids by rat liver 3-hydroxysteroid UDP-glucuronosyltransferase.
Microsomal preparations from livers of Sprague-Dawley rats catalyze the glucuronidation of 3 alpha-hydroxy-5 beta-H (3 alpha, 5 beta) short-chain bile acids (C20-C23), predominantly at the hydroxyl group, while the glucuronidation of 3 beta, 5 beta short-chain bile acids occurs exclusively at the ca...
