Beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 4

Galactose (Gal) transferase involved in the synthesis of terminal N-acetyllactosamine (LacNac) unit present on glycan chains of glycoproteins and glycosphingolipids. Catalyzes the transfer of Gal residue via a beta1->4 linkage from UDP-Gal to the non-reducing terminal N-acetyl glucosamine 6-O-sulfate (6-O-sulfoGlcNAc) in the linearly growing chain of both N- and O-linked keratan sulfate proteoglycans. Cooperates with B3GNT7 N-acetyl glucosamine transferase and CHST6 and CHST1 sulfotransferases to construct and elongate mono- and disulfated disaccharide units [->3Galbeta1->4(6-sulfoGlcNAcbeta)1->] and [->3(6-sulfoGalbeta)1->4(6-sulfoGlcNAcbeta)1->] within keratan sulfate polymer. Transfers Gal residue via a beta1->4 linkage to terminal 6-O-sulfoGlcNAc within the LacNac unit of core 2 O-glycans forming 6-sulfo-sialyl-Lewis X (sLex). May contribute to the generation of sLex epitope on mucin-type glycoproteins that serve as ligands for SELL/L-selectin, a major regulator of leukocyte migration. In the biosynthesis pathway of neolacto-series glycosphingolipids, transfers Gal residue via a beta1->4 linkage to terminal GlcNAc of a lactotriaosylceramide (Lc3Cer) acceptor to form a neolactotetraosylceramide.
