MeSH definition : A nucleoside diphosphate sugar which serves as a source of glucuronic acid for polysaccharide
biosynthesis. It may also be epimerized to UDP iduronic acid, which donates iduronic
acid to polysaccharides. In animals, UDP glucuronic acid is used for formation of
many glucosiduronides with various aglycones.;
