Description | Alpha-1,3-Galactosyltransferase (a1,3GalT) (GGTA1) catalyzes the synthesis of the α-gal epitope by transferring a galactose (Gal) molecule in an α1-3 linkage from a uridyl-diphosphate (UDP) donor to the N-acetyllactosamine (Galβ1,4GlcNAc-R) on glycoproteins. This enzyme is essential for the production of the α-galactose (α-Gal) epitope, a biomolecule prevalent in most mammalian species [1]. |
