Abstract excerpt
In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, gmh1+, gmh2+ and gmh3+ genes encode alpha-1,2-galactosyltransferase homologues. In an in vitro galactosyltransferase assay, the gmh3+ gene product showed galactose transfer activity toward a-methyl-D-mannoside as an acceptor. The disruption of gma12+, the major galactosyltransferase gene [Chappell, T. G., Hajibagheri, M. A. N., Ayscough, K., Pierce, M. & Warren, G....
