Human Alpha-Lactalbumin ELISA Kit (LALBA)

Alpha-Lactalbumin; Lactose Synthase B Protein; Lysozyme-Like Protein 7

Uniprot ID: FDFT_HUMAN ; Reactome: R-HSA-5653890 ; Gene ID: 3906 ; Gene Symbol: LALBA

Function: Regulatory subunit of lactose synthase, changes the substrate specificity of galactosyltransferase in the mammary gland making glucose a good acceptor substrate for this enzyme. This enables LS to synthesize lactose, the major carbohydrate component of milk. In other tissues, galactosyltransferase transfers galactose onto the N-acetylglucosamine of the oligosaccharide chains in glycoproteins.
