Sysname
UDP-alpha-D-galactose:sn-glycerol-3-phosphate 1-alpha-D-galactosyltransferase
Reaction(IUBMB)
UDP-alpha-D-galactose + sn-glycerol 3-phosphate = UDP + 1-O-alpha-D-galactosyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate [RN:R00854]
Reaction(KEGG)
R00854
Substrate
UDP-alpha-D-galactose [CPD:C00052];
sn-glycerol 3-phosphate [CPD:C00093]
Product
UDP [CPD:C00015];
1-O-alpha-D-galactosyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate [CPD:C04703]
Comment
The product is hydrolysed by a phosphatase to isofloridoside, which is involved in osmoregulation (cf. EC 2.4.1.137 sn-glycerol-3-phosphate 2-alpha-galactosyltransferase).
