Crystal structure of the Fucosylgalactoside alpha N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GTA, cisAB mutant L266G, G268A) in complex with a novel UDP-Gal derived inhibitor (4GW) and H-antigen acceptor

Function

[BGAT_HUMAN] This protein is the basis of the ABO blood group system. The histo-blood group ABO involves three carbohydrate antigens: A, B, and H. A, B, and AB individuals express a glycosyltransferase activity that converts the H antigen to the A antigen (by addition of UDP-GalNAc) or to the B antigen (by addition of UDP-Gal), whereas O individuals lack such activity.

About this Structure

3v0p is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Bacteroides caccae. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
