    basic FUNCTION
  • transfer of galactose from UDP-galactose acceptors containing a terminal beta-linked galactose residue
  • galactosyltransferase activity
  • plays a critical role in a wide range of biological processes in various tissues, including skin, bone, cartilage, tendon, and ligament
  • crucial role for B3GALT6 in multiple major developmental and pathophysiological processes
    • CELLULAR PROCESS cell organization/biogenesis
