Accepted name: |
1,3-β-galactosyl-N-acetylhexosamine phosphorylase |
Reaction: |
β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine + phosphate = α-D-galactopyranose 1-phosphate + N-acetyl-D-glucosamine |
Other name(s): |
lacto-N-biose phosphorylase; LNBP; galacto-N-biose phosphorylase |
Systematic name: |
β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-hexosamine:phosphate galactosyltransferase |
Comments: |
Reaction also occurs with β-D-galactopyranosyl-(1→3)-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine as the substrate, giving N-acetyl-D-galactosamine as the product. |
