Reaction catalysed
a beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl derivative + UDP-alpha-D-galactose = an alpha-D-galactosyl-(1->3)-beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminyl derivative + H(+) + UDP
Comment(s)
  • Acts on beta-galactosyl-1,4-N-acetylglucosaminyl termini on asialo- alpha1-acid glycoprotein and N-acetyllactosamine (beta-D-galactosyl- 1,4-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosamine), but not on 2'-fucosylated-N- acetyllactosamine.
  • The non-reducing terminal N-acetyllactosamine residues of glycoproteins can also act as acceptor.
  • Formerly EC 2.4.1.124 and EC 2.4.1.151.
