Uses
Galactosyltransferase from bovine milk has been used:
- in the generation of hyper-galactosylated variant of IgG1
- in β -1,4-galactosyltransferase assay rice root cell extracts
- in the modification of LacNAcQ11 and LacDiNAcQ11 nanofibers
General Description
Galactosyltransferases belong to the galactosyltransferase family and are anchored to the membrane of Golgi through their N-terminal region.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Galactosyltransferase from bovine milk requires Mn2+ ions for its catalytic functionality. Alteration in the galactosyltransferase levels have been implicated in various diseases states.
