General description
Research area: Cell Signaling
Galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALT) is a galactose metabolizing enzyme that facilitates the simultaneous conversion of uridine diphosphoglucose (UDP-glucose) and galactose-1-phosphate (gal-1P) to uridine diphosphogalactose (UDP-galactose) and glucose-1-phosphate. Classic Galactosemia (CG) is an inherited metabolic condition caused by deficiency of GALT activity. GALT gene is mapped to human chromosome 9p13. Deficiency of GALT results in type 1 galactosemia.

Other Notes
One unit will form 1.0 μmole of glucose 1-phosphate from UDP-glucose, galactose 1-phosphate and NADP+ per min at pH 8.7 at 25 °C as detected by a coupled system using phosphoglucomutase.

GlnD is a bifunctional uridylyltransferase/uridylyl-removing enzyme that has a central role in the general nitrogen regulatory system NTR. In enterobacteria, GlnD uridylylates the PII proteins GlnB and GlnK under low levels of fixed nitrogen or ammonium. Under high ammonium levels

Classic galactosemia is an autosomal recessive inherited error of galactose metabolism. It is caused by lack of galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase, an enzyme that is required to metabolize galactose-1-phosphate to uridine diphosphate galactose. The build up of galactose-1-phosphate is toxic at
