Gene ID7358
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene NameUDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase
Gene Symbol UGDH
SynonymsGDH; UGD; UDPGDH; UDP-GlcDH;
Alternate namesUDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase; UDP-Glc dehydrogenase; UDP-glucose dehydrogenase; uridine diphospho-glucose dehydrogenase;
Chromosome4
Map Location4p15.1
EC Number1.1.1.22;
SummaryThe protein encoded by this gene converts UDP-glucose to UDP-glucuronate and thereby participates in the biosynthesis of glycosaminoglycans such as hyaluronan, chondroitin sulfate, and heparan sulfate. These glycosylated compounds are common components of the extracellular matrix and likely play roles in signal transduction, cell migration, and cancer growth and metastasis. The expression of this gene is up-regulated by transforming growth factor beta and down-regulated by hypoxia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
