| Accepted Name |
|---|
| Lactosylceramide beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase.
|
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| UDP-alpha-D-galactose + D-galactosyl-(1->4)-beta-D-glucosyl-R <=> UDP + D-galactosyl-(1->3)-beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-beta-D-glucosyl-R |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- R may be an oligosaccharide or a glycolipid.
- Lactose can also act as acceptor, more slowly.
- Involved in the elongation of oligosaccharide chains, especially in
