Galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (EC 2.7.7.10), responsible for the conversion of galactose-1-phosphate (Gal-1-P) to uridine diphosphate galactose (UDPgal) was examined in fruit peduncles of ...

SCHWARTZ, HOLZEL and KOMROWER have demonstrated high levels of galactose-1-phosphate in tissues of newborns deficient in galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase activity. Following their ...

GALACTOSE-6-phosphate (gal-6-P) has been shown to be produced from galactose-1-phosphate (gal-l-P) in the presence of phosphoglucomutase 1, demonstrated in eryth-rocytes of patients with galactosæmia ...

Four Albanian and three Croatian communities settled in Molise (Italy) have been investigated for galactose-1-phosphate uridyltransferase (GALT) polymorphism. To obtain a detailed identification of ...

The purpose of the present paper is to describe some observations that may help to elucidate this difference. Except where indicated all the tests were performed on the same group of 10 patients with ...

Galactosemia is a rare genetic disorder in which galactose cannot be converted to glucose and instead accumulates in the blood. If infants born with this condition are left untreated, they die in 75% ...

Galactosemia is a genetic disorder in which the body cannot process galactose, which is a simple sugar that is found in many foods. It is actually part of the sugar called lactose, (lactose contains ...

Galactosemia is a rare genetic disorder that causes an inability to digest galactose, which is a breakdown product of lactose. Lactose is one of the main carbohydrates in milk. In the infant intestine ...
