UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 2B15 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the UGT2B15 gene. ^{[5] [6]}

The UGTs are of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. UGT2B8 demonstrates reactivity with estriol. See UGT2B4 (MIM 600067).[supplied by OMIM] ^[6]
