Chemical formula

The reaction formula on the page is very simplified, and not strictly correct. UDP-glucuron should be a substrate and UDP should be a product. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.160.88.119 (talk) 21:44, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Structure of Glucuronic Acid

The structure given in the "information bar" on the right of the page is difference from the structure in the reaction scheme (the one in the reaction scheme has an extra CH2 linking to the carboxylic acid (CO2H) group. I think the structure at the top of the page is the correct one, but I'm not an expert in this area. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.44.1.174 (talk) 12:26, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You are indeed correct. There is an error in File:GlucuronidationBiphenylAmine.png. I have replaced this diagram with a corrected version and nominated the incorrect one for deletion. Thanks for catching the error and reporting it here. -- Ed (Edgar181) 15:11, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
