Secondary Information

Protein Function Involved in the development of cerebrum and cerebellum of mice.Catalyzes the synthesis of galactosylceramide sulfate (sulfatide), a major lipid component of the myelin sheath and of monogalactosylalkylacylglycerol sulfate (seminolipid), present in spermatocytes.
Biochemical Properties This protein is involved in the pathway sphingolipid metabolism, which is part of Lipid metabolism.

Significance of PTMs glycosylation has been found to be required for the correct subcellular targeting of some proteins, for the stabilization of enzymes, or to be directly involved in forming an active enzyme.
Additional Comments The formation of sulphatide and seminolipid by the transfer of sulphate from adenosine 3-phosphate 5-phosphosulphate (PAPS) to galactocerebroside and galactosylalkylacylglycerol respectively is catalysed by the same enzyme, galactosylceramide sulphotransferase (CST), a Golgi type II membrane protein
