Crystal structure of the Fucosylgalactoside alpha N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GTA, cisAB mutant L266G, G268A) in complex with a novel UDP-Gal derived inhibitor (2GW)Crystal structure of the Fucosylgalactoside alpha N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GTA, cisAB mutant L266G, G268A) in complex with a novel UDP-Gal derived inhibitor (2GW)
Structural highlights
FunctionBGAT_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.
