Enzyme Details

1. Galactosylceramide sulfotransferase

General function:: Involved in galactosylceramide sulfotransferase activity
Specific function:: Catalyzes the sulfation of membrane glycolipids. Seems to prefer beta-glycosides at the non-reducing termini of sugar chains attached to a lipid moiety. Catalyzes the synthesis of HSO3-3-galactosylceramide (sulfatide), a major lipid component of the myelin sheath and of HSO3-3-monogalactosylalkylacylglycerol (seminolipid), present in spermatocytes. Also acts on lactosylceramide, galactosyl 1-alkyl-2-sn-glycerol and galactosyl diacylglycerol (in vitro) (By similarity).
Gene Name:: GAL3ST1
Uniprot ID:: A6QNK1
Molecular weight:: 48754.0

Reactions

Galactosylceramide (d18:1/16:0) + Phosphoadenosine phosphosulfate → 3-O-Sulfogalactosylceramide (d18:1/24:0) + Adenosine 3',5'-diphosphate	details

Enzyme Details

3. UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 3A1

General function:: Carbohydrate transport and metabolism
Specific function:: UDP-glucuronosyltransferases catalyze phase II biotransformation reactions in which lipophilic substrates are conjugated with glucuronic acid to increase water solubility and enhance excretion. They are of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds (By similarity).
