ENZYME entry: EC 2.4.1.398

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/2.4.1.398
Accepted Name
beta-galactofuranoside beta-1,5-galactofuranosyltransferase
Reaction catalysed
a beta-D-galactofuranoside + UDP-alpha-D-galactofuranose = a beta-D-Galf-(1->5)-beta-D-galactofuranoside + UDP + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • Requires Mn(2+).
  • The enzyme, characterized from the flilamentous fungi Aspergillus nidulans and Aspergillus fumigatus, participates in the synthesis of fungal-type galactomannan and O-mannose-type galactomannan, which are embedded in the fungal cell walls.
  • While the reaction shown here describes the transfer of one galactofuransyl residue, the enzyme can add up to 5 more galactofuranosyl residues.
