Protein Name:
UDP-galactose translocator
|
UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: Q9R0M8 (Q9R0M8)
Gene Name:
Slc35a2
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse)
Function: Transports uridine diphosphate galactose (UDP-galactose) from the cytosol into the Golgi apparatus (PubMed:10578063). It functions as an antiporter that exchanges UDP-galactose for UMP (By similarity). It is also able to exchange UDP-galactose for AMP and CMP, and to transport UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine (UDP-GalNAc) and other nucleotide sugars (By similarity). As a provider of UDP-galactose to galactosyltransferases present in the Golgi apparatus, it is necessary for globotriaosylceramide/globoside (Gb3Cer) synthesis from lactosylceramide (By similarity)
