MeSH definition : An enzyme that catalyzes reversibly the formation of galactose 1-phosphate and ADP
from ATP and D-galactose. Galactosamine can also act as the acceptor. A deficiency
of this enzyme results in GALACTOSEMIA. EC 2.7.1.6.;
MeSH CAS label : ATP:D-galactose 1-phosphotransferase;
MeSH Related Number : 9030-53-9 (CAS RN);
Registry Number MeSH : EC 2.7.1.6;
MeSH annotation : /defic: consider also GALACTOSEMIAS;
