Comparison of kinetics parameters of UGT1A9 from different sources in genistein and apigenin glucuronidation

A Student's t test was used to compare the data. For Supersomes and transient overexpression of UGT1A9, three independent studies (n = 3) were run, whereas for stable overexpression of UGT1A9, only two independent studies (n = 2) were run. The arrows indicate the position for glucuronidation occurring in the engineered HeLa cells.
