UDP-Gal:betaGal beta 1,3-galactosyltransferase polypeptide 6 (B3GALT6; EDSP2; SEMDJL1) catalyzes the transfer of galactose from UDP-galactose to substrates containing a terminal β-linked galactose moiety. It is localized to Golgi apparatus and is required for glycosaminoglycan synthesis. Aberrations in B3GALT6 gene result in skeletal and connective tissue disorders, collectively known as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.
