In enzymology a galactolipid galactosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.184) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction2 3-(beta-D-galactosyl)-12-diacyl-sn-glycerol 3-[alpha-D-galactosyl-(1->6)-beta-D-galactosyl]-12-diacyl-sn- glycerol + 12-diacyl-sn-glycerolHence this enzyme has one substrate 3-(beta-D-galactosyl)-12-diacyl-sn-glycerol but 3 products: [[3-[alpha-D-galactosyl-(1->6)-beta-D-galactosyl]-12-diacyl-sn-]] glycerol and 12-diacyl-sn-glycerol.This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases specifically the hexosyltransferases.
