Function
- beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase
- transfers galactose from UDP-galactose to substrates with terminal beta-galactose
- preference for galactose-beta-1,4-xylose found in linker region of glycosaminoglycans
- chondroitin sulfate & heparan sulfate synthesis
- NO activity towards substrates with terminal glucosamine or galactosamine
Structure
belongs to the glycosyltransferase 31 family
