GALS2

Gene

GALS2

Protein

Galactan beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase GALS2

Organism

Arabidopsis thaliana

Length

519 amino acids

Function

Involved in the biosynthesis of beta-1,4-galactan. Beta-1,4-galactans are abundant polysaccharides in plant cell walls and are found as side-chain of rhamnogalacturonan I, which is a major component of pectin.

Similarity

Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 92 family.
