|
| Function |
The Golgi complex form catalyzes the production of lactose in the lactating mammary gland and could also be responsible for the synthesis of complex-type N-linked oligosaccharides in many glycoproteins as well as the carbohydrate moieties of glycolipids.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Processed beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 1: Secreted. Note=Soluble form found in body fluids.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitously expressed, but at very low levels in fetal and adult brain.
|
| Top Pathways |
N-Glycan biosynthesis, Other types of O-glycan biosynthesis, Glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis - keratan sulfate, Galactose metabolism, Glycosphingolipid biosynthesis - lacto and neolacto series
