In enzymology a N-acylsphingosine galactosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.47) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionUDP-galactose + N-acylsphingosine UDP + D-galactosylceramideThus the two substrates of this enzyme are UDP-galactose and N-acylsphingosine whereas its two products are UDP and D-galactosylceramide.This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases specifically the hexosyltransferases.
