UDPgal is a pivotal compound in the metabolism of galactose. UDPgal is a product of the galactose-L-phosphate uridyl transferase (EC 2.7.7.10) reaction but may also be made from Glucose-L-P, involving uridine diphosphate galactose-4-epimerase (EC 5.1.3.2). UDPgal is the necessary galactosyl donor of galactose in the metabolism to incorporate it into complex oligosaccharides, glycoproteins and glycolipids (galactosides).

PW002059MetabolicO-antigen building blocks biosynthesisLipopolysaccharide (LPS), a major outer membrane component, is composed of three domains: Lipid A; the core, which is an oligosaccharide consisting of an inner and outer region; and a distal repeating unit known as O-antigen.
E. coli K12 is capable of producing an O-antigen when all the rfb genes are intact. The O-antigen is part of the lipopolysaccharide and is attached to the lipid A-core component, which is separately synthesized.
