English term or phrase: Glucuronic acid
Glucuronyl C5-epimerase an enzyme converting glucuronic acid to iduronic acid in heparan sulfate/heparin biosynthesis.
The glucuronyl C5 epimerase (HSepi) is one of the modification enzymes involved in biosynthesis of heparan sulfate (HS) and heparin, catalyzing the epimerization of D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) to L-iduronic acid (IdoA) at polymer level. IdoA is critical for HS and heparin to interact with protein ligands, because of its flexible conformation.

Latvian translation:glikuronskābe
Explanation:
Raksturīgākie endogēniskie savienojumi, ar ko veidojas zāļvielu metabolītu konjugāti, ir glikuronskābe, glutations, kā arī aminoskābes. Pie II fāzes reakcijām pieder acetilēšanās un sulfatēšanās reakcijas.
Vācu zinātnieki ir izpētījuši, ka glikuronskābe kavē metastāžu veidošanos vēža slimniekiem.
