GlycoWord / GlycogeneA-01 To understand the effects of the 1,4-galt-I deficiency on carbohydrate structures,N-glycans and O-glycans in various tissues of -1,4-galt-I KO mice were http://www.glycoforum.gr.jp/science/word/glycogene/GGA01.html
Extractions: -1,4-Galactosyltransferase ( -1,4-GalT) (EC 2.4.1.38) is a glycosyltransferase that is required for the biosynthesis of the backbone structure from type 2 chain (Gal 4GlcNAc), which appears widely on N-glcans, O-glycans and glycolipids. The type 2 chain is particularly important in the synthesis of sialyl lewis x and SSEA-1, which play a role in the immune system and early embryogenesis, respectively. Although -1,4-GalT gene was believed to be a single gene in the past, novel -1,4-GalT genes were successively isolated in 1997-1998 to form the -1,4-GalT gene family consisting of seven genes. KO mice deficient in the -1,4-GalT activity and faint bands corresponding to the Gal 4GlcNAc structure detected in -1,4-GalT-I KO mice could be derived from other -1,4-GalT gene(s). -1,4-GalT-I KO mice were unexpectedly born normally, although an essential role of the Gal -1,4-GalT-I KO mice showed augmented proliferation and abnormal differentiation of intestinal and epidermal epithelial cells, suggesting the carbohydratechains synthesized by -1,4-GalT-I regulate proliferation and differentiation of epithelial cells (1).

Advisory Committee Health Professionals Guide to Newborn Screening: Newborn Screening Disorders Galactosemia Autosomal recessive disorder of galactose metabolism. The genetic disturbance is expressed as a cellular deficiency of either galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase (classic form), galactokinase, (variant) or uridine diphosphate galactose 4 epimerase (variant) - the enzymes catalyzing the reaction by which galactose is converted to glucose. The main dietary source of galactose is lactose, the principle carbohydrate in milk.

Questions should be directed to Dan Sherling (dan@uga.edu) Structure of Galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) and its function in the Leloir Pathway The three steps of the Leloir pathway allows galactose (Gal), a metabolite of lactose, to enter the myrad of glucose (Glc) metabolic pathways by the conversion of Gal into UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc). In the first step, Gal is converted to galactose-1-phosphate (Gal1P) by galactokinase (GALK). Secondly, galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) catalyzes the transfer of one UMP from UDP-Glc to Gal1P, resulting in the production of Glc1P and UDP-galactose (UDP-Gal). UDP-Gal is then epimerized at the C4 position to produce UDP-Glc in the third (and final) step of the pathway by UDP-Gal epimerase (GALE). Glc1P may enter glycolysis through the conversion into Glc6P by phosphoglucomutase. In this report we will focus on the structure and function of the second enzyme in the Leloir pathway, GALT. GALT, a 379 amino acid homodimer in humans, catalyzes a double displacement reaction displaying ping-pong kinetics. First, UDP-Glc binds the enzyme through the nucleophilic attack of the enzymes His166 on the ?-phosphoryl of UDP-Glc. Glc1P is released, producing an uridylylated enzyme intermediate. The accepted mechanism shows GALT as being the only enzyme in the pathway that proceeds through a covalently bound intermediate. Secondly, Gal1P, from the GALK reaction, binds UMP at the enzymes active site, releasing UDP-Gal and regenerating the enzyme.

Tong / Cs. Hetényi / Zs. Bikádi / J.-P. Gao / S. Hjertén non -charged monomers (acrylamide and N,N' Another universal method has been introduced for rapid screening of potential monomers and gels for the preparation of selective adsorbents. This very simple method is based on the assumption that the absorption maximum of a protein changes when the protein interacts with the free monomers or the adsorbent synthesized from the monomers (and does not change when the protein does not interact). Preliminary docking experiments indicate that selective adsorption of the protein by the polyacrylamide matrix is based primarily on hydrogen-bonding and dipole-dipole interactions. The strengths of these interactions can be varied by choosing different gel matrices (for removal of a given protein the interactions should be very strong, whereas they should be weaker for chromatographic analysis).
