Claims17
A protein comprising the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID No:1.
A protein which consists of an amino acid sequence in which at least one amino acid is deleted, substituted, inserted or added in the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:1, and has β1,3-galactosyltransferase activity.
A protein which has a homology of at least 80% with a protein consisting of the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:1, and has β1,3-galactosyltransferase activity.
A DNA comprising the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:2.
A DNA which hybridizes with a DNA consisting of the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:2 under stringent conditions, and encodes a protein having β1,3-galactosyltransferase activity.
