TABLE 2.

Glucuronidation kinetic parameters from UGT overexpression in baculosomal cell system

Values represent the parameter estimate (S.E.) by fitting substrate concentration to the simple Michaelis-Menten (MM), Hill, or two-site equation, as described in the Materials and Methods, to metabolite formation velocity using Phoenix WinNonlin (version 7.0).

Clint = Vmax/Km or Clmax = Inline graphic. n, Hill coefficient in the Hill equation.

a

The low-affinity enzyme substrate concentration versus velocity did not saturate, and the estimated Km (>2 mM) and Vmax values were unreliable. Thus, only the high Km is presented and calculated for Clint,u.
