What (who) is UDP-galactose - definition
CHEMICAL COMPOUND
UDP-galactose
UDP-glucose 4-epimerase
CLASS OF ENZYMES
GALE; UDP galactose epimerase; UDPgalactose-4-epimerase; Galactose epimerase; EC 5.1.3.2; UDP-alpha-D-glucose 4-epimerase
The enzyme UDP-glucose 4-epimerase (), also known as UDP-galactose 4-epimerase or GALE, is a homodimeric epimerase found in bacterial, fungal, plant, and mammalian cells. This enzyme performs the final step in the Leloir pathway of galactose metabolism, catalyzing the reversible conversion of UDP-galactose to UDP-glucose.
Undecaprenyl-phosphate galactose phosphotransferase
CLASS OF ENZYMES
EC 2.7.8.6; UDP-alpha-D-galactose:undecaprenyl-phosphate galactose phosphotransferase
In enzymology, an undecaprenyl-phosphate galactose phosphotransferase () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

MAMMALIAN PROTEIN FOUND IN HOMO SAPIENS
Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase; Galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase; GALT (gene); EC 2.7.7.12; Galactose—1-phosphate uridylyltransferase; G1PUT
Galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (or GALT, G1PUT) is an enzyme () responsible for converting ingested galactose to glucose.
Wikipedia
Uridine diphosphate galactose
Uridine diphosphate galactose (UDP-galactose) is an intermediate in the production of polysaccharides. It is important in nucleotide sugars metabolism, and is the substrate for the transferase B4GALT5.
