Crossroads between bacterial and mammalian glycosyltransferases

Bacterial glycosyltransferases often synthesize the same glycan linkages as mammalian glycosyltransferases, yet they usually have very little sequence identity. Nevertheless, the properties, folding, substrate specificities and catalytic mechanisms of these enzyme proteins may have significant simil...
