UAC: Is there a GPO option to disable/enable UAC?

I see the local control panel option to disable UAC, but from an enterprise
management perspective, is there a GPO option to do so?

Thanks!

Thank Jimmy,

The link below describes the UAC attributes, but is disabling all of these
really equivalent to turning UAC off in the Control Panel?

The control panel utility modifies the following security setting: "User
Account Control: Run all administrators in admin approval mode".

When you turn UAC off from the control panel, it sets this value to
Disabled. When you turn UAC on, it sets this value to Enabled.
