Entry
EC 2.4.1.47                 Enzyme                                 
Name
N-acylsphingosine galactosyltransferase;
UGT8 (gene name);
CGT (gene name);
UDP galactose-N-acylsphingosine galactosyltransferase;
uridine diphosphogalactose-acylsphingosine galactosyltransferase;
UDP-galactose:N-acylsphingosine D-galactosyltransferase;
UDP-alpha-D-galactose:N-acylsphingosine D-galactosyltransferase;
2-hydroxyacylsphingosine 1-beta-galactosyltransferase
Class
Transferases;
Glycosyltransferases;
Hexosyltransferases
Sysname
UDP-alpha-D-galactose:N-acylsphingosine beta-D-galactosyltransferase (configuration-inverting)
Reaction(IUBMB)
UDP-alpha-D-galactose + a ceramide = UDP + a beta-D-galactosylceramide [RN:R01500 R06277]
Reaction(KEGG)
R01500 R06277(G) > R04322;
(other) R01928 R10804
Substrate
UDP-alpha-D-galactose [CPD:C00052];
ceramide [CPD:C00195]
Product
UDP [CPD:C00015];
beta-D-galactosylceramide
Comment
This membrane-bound, endoplasmic reticulum-located enzyme catalyses the last step in the synthesis of galactocerebrosides, which are abundant sphingolipids of the myelin membrane of the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system. It has a strong preference for ceramides that contain hydroxylated fatty acids.
