TABLE 3

Enzyme kinetic parameters and RAF values of ES glucuronidation based on ES-3-G formation in the presence of 2% BSA

The unbound fraction in incubation (ES) = 0.04. The Vmax and KM values in HLM and hrUGT1A1 were calculated from eq. 3. The Vmax and KM values in HIM and HKM were calculated from eq. 2.
