UDP-Glucose 4-Epimerase and β-1,4-Galactosyltransferase from the Oyster Magallana gigas as Valuable Biocatalysts for the Production of Galactosylated Products

Uridine diphosphate galactose (UDP-galactose) is a valuable building block in the enzymatic synthesis of galactose-containing glycoconjugates. UDP-glucose 4-epimerase (UGE) is an enzyme which catalyzes the reversible conversion of abundantly available UDP-glucose to UDP-galactose. Herein, we describ...
