Background: B3GalT5

B3GalT5 is a glycosyltransferase in the beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase (B3GalT) family that contains 5 members. It is synthesized as type II membrane-bound glycoproteins in the Golgi apparatus (1). The enzyme catalyzes the synthesis of type 1 lactosamine structure (Gal beta1-3GlcNAc) in type 1 Lewis antigens (Lea and Leb). Lea and Leb are elevated in gastrointestinal and pancreatic cancers (2). Sialylated Lea (Neu5Ac alpha2-3Gal beta1-3[Fuc alpha1-4]GlcNAc beta), also known as CA19-9, is a tumor marker in the gastrointestinal tract (Stomach, colon, and pancrease) (3). Down-regulation of B3GalT5 will reduce the level of CA19-9 (4, 5). In contrast, beta-1,4-galactosyltransferases synthesize type 2 lactosamine structure (Gal beta1-4GlcNAc) that is found in type 2 Lewis antigens (Lex and Ley). B3GalT5 is also known as SSEA-3 synthase and synthesizes the structure Gal beta1-3GalNAc in stage-specific embryonic antigen-3 (SSEA-3) antigen (6). SSEA-3 plays a key role in identifying many types of mammalian cells with pluripotent and stem cell-like characteristics (7). It also catalyzes the transfer of Gal to GlcNAc-based acceptors with a preference for the Core-3 O-linked glycan GlcNAc beta1-3GalNAc structure (8). The activity of this enzyme has been measured with a phosphatase-coupled method (9).
