Glycosyltransferases have been classified by sequence family as a part of the CAZy database. We have chosen several bacterial homologs of mammalian glycosyltransferases for expression in the repository. For each family the putative enzyme specificity of the corresponding gene product(s) is/are listed. Also a more comprehensive Excel spreadsheet of the target gene list can be found HERE.
To find the gene if interest please click the corresponding CAZy family number to navigate to all of the members of the respective gene family.
