Human hepatic UGT2B15 developmental expression changes may alter the metabolism of important drugs and toxicants such as bisphenol A (BPA). Previously, UGT2B15 ontogeny knowledge consisted of transcript data, a dubious surrogate for protein expression. Herein, UGT2B15 protein content was determined in human hepatic microsomes (n=236, 8 weeks gestation to 18 years). The impact of a common, functional single nucleotide polymorphism (g.253G>T),present in UGT2B15*2 and *5 alleles, was also tested. UGT2B15 expression began during late fetal life, at about 18% of mature values (medians=48, 267 pmoles/mg of microsomal protein, respectively; p= 28 weeks, n=10) content was similar, but lower than that of infants between 3 and 15 weeks age (n=46; medians=38, 48, 404 pmoles/mg microsomal protein, respectively; p
