General annotation (Comments)

Function

Transfer of galactose from UDP-galactose to an acceptor molecule (R). Synthesizes the galactose-alpha(1,3)-galactose group, which is the most common carbohydrate containing terminal alpha-galactose. Preferentially glycosylates lipids.

Catalytic activity

UDP-galactose + beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-beta-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-R = UDP + alpha-D-galactosyl-(1->3)-beta-D-galactosyl-(1->4)-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyl-R.

Cofactor

Manganese By similarity.

Pathway

Protein modification; protein glycosylation.

Subcellular location

Golgi apparatus Potential.

Domain

The conserved DXD motif is involved in cofactor binding. The manganese ion interacts with the beta-phosphate group of UDP and may also have a role in catalysis.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 6 family.
