A β(1,4)-galactosyltransferase (GaIT) activity capable of extending 2-aminopyridine-labeled galacto-oligosaccharides was found to be associated with microsomes. Digestion of the enzymatic products using a β(1,4)-specific endogalactanase confirmed the production of β(1,4)-galactan by this ...
rfbA codes for integral membrane protein; rfbB encodes for ATP-binding protein; rfbF encodes for galactosyl transferase; and the functions of rfbCDE products are unclear. One typical feature of K. pneumoniae is the evasion from blood complement to readily disseminate in the body, as the ...
Biosynthesis of pectic galactan by membrane-bound galactosyltransferase from soybean (Glycine max Merr.) seedlings We investigated the properties of a galactosyl-transferase (GalT) that is involved in the synthesis of β-(1 → 4)-galactan side chains of pectins. A membr... T Konishi,T Mitome...
