Crystal structure of recombinant human alpha lactalbumin

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23155056

Function

[LALBA_HUMAN] Regulatory subunit of lactose synthase, changes the substrate specificity of galactosyltransferase in the mammary gland making glucose a good acceptor substrate for this enzyme. This enables LS to synthesize lactose, the major carbohydrate component of milk. In other tissues, galactosyltransferase transfers galactose onto the N-acetylglucosamine of the oligosaccharide chains in glycoproteins.

About this Structure

3b0i is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Human. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
