Human Gb3/CD77 synthase: a glycosyltransferase at the crossroads of immunohematology, toxicology, and cancer research

Abstract Human Gb3/CD77 synthase (α1,4-galactosyltransferase, P1/Pk synthase, UDP-galactose: β-d-galactosyl-β1-R 4-α-d-galactosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.228) forms Galα1 → 4Gal structures on glycosphingolipids and glycoproteins. These glycans are recognized by bacterial adhesins and toxins. Globotriao...
