Comments: Involved in the biosynthesis of chondroitin and dermatan sulfate. The human chondroitin synthetase is a bifunctional glycosyltransferase, which has the 3-β-glucuronosyltransferase and 4-β-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.175) activities required for the synthesis of the chondroitin sulfate disaccharide repeats. Similar chondroitin synthase ’co-polymerases’ can be found in Pasteurella multocida and Escherichia coli. There is also another human protein with apparently only the 3-β-glucuronosyltransferase activity.

Systematic name: GDP-β-L-fucose:β-D-galactosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminyl-R 4I-α-L-fucosyltransferase (configuration-inverting)
Comments: This enzyme is the product of the Lewis blood group gene. Normally acts on a glycoconjugate where R (see reaction) is a glycoprotein or glycolipid. Although it is a 4-fucosyltransferase, it has a persistent 3-fucosyltransferase activity towards the glucose residue in free lactose. This enzyme fucosylates on O-4 of an N-acetylglucosamine that carries a galactosyl group on O-3, unlike EC 2.4.1.152, 4-galactosyl-N-acetylglucosaminide 3-α-L-fucosyltransferase, which fucosylates on O-3 of an N-acetylglucosamine that carries a galactosyl group on O-4. Enzymes catalysing the 4-α-fucosylation of the GlcNAc in β-D-Gal-(1→3)-β-GlcNAc sequences (with some activity also as 3-α-fucosyltransferases) are present in plants, where the function in vivo is the modification of N-glycans. In addition, the fucTa gene of Helicobacter strain UA948 encodes a fucosyltransferase with both 3-α- and 4-α-fucosyltransferase activities.

Systematic name: 1,2-diacyl-3-O-(β-D-galactosyl)-sn-glycerol:1,2-diacyl-3-O-(β-D-galactosyl)-sn-glycerol β-D-galactosyltransferase
Comments: The enzyme converts monogalactosyldiacylglycerol to digalactosyldiacylglycerol, trigalactosyldiacylglycerol and tetragalactosyldiacylglycerol. All residues are connected by β linkages. The activity is localized to chloroplast envelope membranes, but it does not contribute to net galactolipid synthesis in plants, which is performed by EC 2.4.1.46, monogalactosyldiacylglycerol synthase, and EC 2.4.1.241, digalactosyldiacylglycerol synthase. Note that the β,β-digalactosyldiacylglycerol formed by this enzyme is different from the more common α,β-digalactosyldiacylglycerol formed by EC 2.4.1.241. The enzyme provides an important mechanism for the stabilization of the chloroplast membranes during freezing and drought stress.

Comments: Requires a high concentration of Mn2+ for maximal activity. The enzyme, characterized from hen oviduct membranes, participates in the processing of N-glycans in the Golgi apparatus. It transfers GlcNAc in β1-4 linkage to a D-mannose residue that already has GlcNAc residues attached at positions 2 and 6 by β linkages. No homologous enzyme appears to exist in mammals.

Reaction: [(1→2)-β-D-glucosyl]n + a D-glucoside = [(1→2)-β-D-glucosyl]n-1 + a β-D-glucosyl-(1→2)-D-glucoside
Systematic name: 1,2-β-D-glucan:D-glucoside 2-β-D-glucosyltransferase (configuration-retaining)
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Ignavibacterium album, transfers a glucosyl residue from the non-reducing end of a 1,2-β-D-glucan to a glucose residue of an acceptor molecule, forming a β(1,2) linkage. The donor molecule can be as small as sophorose (which contains two glucosyl residues). The enzyme has a very broad specificity for the acceptor, and can act on various aryl- and alkyl-glucosides. In addition, the accepting glucose unit can be in either α or β configuration.

Comments: The enzyme acts on a glycoconjugates where R (see reaction) is a glycoprotein or glycosphingolipid. The recognized moiety of the substrate is known as a type 2 histo-blood group antigen precursor disaccharide, and the action of the enzyme produces an H type 2 antigen. Humans possess two enzymes able to catalyse this reaction, encoded by the FUT1 and FUT2 genes (also known as the H and Secretor genes, respectively), but only FUT1 is expressed in red blood cells. cf.

EC 2.4.1.341     Relevance: 81.9%
Accepted name: α-1,2-colitosyltransferase
Reaction: GDP-β-L-colitose + β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine = GDP + α-L-colitosyl-(1→2)-β-D-galactosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine
Glossary: β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine = lacto-N-biose
Other name(s): wbgN (gene name)
Systematic name: GDP-β-L-colitose:β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine L-colitosyltransferase (configuration-inverting)
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Escherichia coli O55:H7, participates in the biosynthesis of an O-antigen. The reaction involves anomeric inversion, and does not require any metal ions. The enzyme is highly specific towards the acceptor, exclusively recognizing lacto-N-biose, but can accept GDP-L-fucose as the donor with almost the same activity as with GDP-β-L-colitose.

Comments: Requires Mn2+. The enzyme transfers to N-linked oligosaccharide structures (N-glycans), generally with a specificity for N-glycans with one unsubstituted non-reducing terminal GlcNAc residue. This enzyme catalyses a reaction similar to that of EC 2.4.1.68, glycoprotein 6-α-L-fucosyltransferase, but transferring the L-fucosyl group from GDP-β-L-fucose to form an α1,3-linkage rather than an α1,6-linkage. The N-glycan products of this enzyme are present in plants, insects and some other invertebrates (e.g., Schistosoma, Haemonchus, Lymnaea).
