Abstract excerpt

Leukocyte-type core 2 β1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (C2GnT-L) is an inverting, metal-ion-independent glycosyltransferase that catalyzes the formation of mucin-type core 2 O-glycans. C2GnT-L belongs to the GT-A fold, yet it lacks the metal ion binding DXD motif characteristic of other nucleoside disphosphate GT-A fold glycosyltransferases. To shed light on the basis for its metal ion independence, we have...
