Descriptor English: UTP-Hexose-1-Phosphate Uridylyltransferase
Descriptor Spanish: UTP-Hexosa-1-Fosfato Uridililtransferasa
Descriptor UTP-hexosa-1-fosfato uridiltransferasa
Entry term(s) UDP galactosa pirofosforilasa
galactosafosfato uridiltransferasa
Scope note: Enzima que cataliza la síntesis de UDPgalactosa a partir de UDP y galactosa-1-fosfato. Está presente en bajas concentraciones en el hígado fetal y del lactante, pero aumenta con la edad, permitiendo, de esa forma, que los niños galactosémicos que sobreviven desarrollen la capacidad de metabolizar la galactosa. EC 2.7.7.10.

Scope note: An enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of UDPgalactose from UTP and galactose-1-phosphate. It is present in low levels in fetal and infant liver, but increases with age, thereby enabling galactosemic infants who survive to develop the capacity to metabolize galactose. EC 2.7.7.10.
