Background: beta-1,4-Galactosyltransferase 1/B4GalT1
beta 4GalT1 is one of seven beta 1,4 galactosyltransferases that transfer galactose in a beta 1,4 linkage to acceptor sugars including GlcNAc, and Glc, and Xyl. By sequence similarity, the beta 4GalTs form four groups: beta 4GalT1 and beta 4GalT2, beta 4GalT3 and beta 4GalT4, beta 4GalT5 and beta 4GalT6, and beta 4GalT7 (1). beta 4GalT1 is unique among the seven enzymes because it can be expressed either as membrane associated form or secreted form (2). The secreted form is restricted to lactating mammary tissues where the enzyme forms a heterodimer with alpha -lactalbumin to catalyze the synthesis of lactose (3). The membrane form can reside either in the Golgi apparatus, where it adds galactose to N-acetylglucosamine residues, or on cell surface, where it functions as a recognition molecule during a variety of cell to cell and cell to matrix interactions, by binding to specific oligosaccharide ligands on opposing cells or in the extracellular matrix (4). The two enzymatic forms result from alternate transcription initiation sites and post-translational processing (5). Defects in beta 4GalT1 are the cause of congenital disorder of glycosylation type 2D (CDG2D) (6).
