Protein
UDP-galactose transporter homolog 1
Organism
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c)
Function
May be involved in specific transport of UDP-Gal from the cytosol to the Golgi lumen. Involved in the maintenance of optimal conditions for the folding of secretory pathway proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. Overexpression confers resistance to the immunosuppressive drug, leflunomide.
Similarity
Belongs to the nucleotide-sugar transporter family. SLC35B subfamily.
