AmiGO 2: Term Details for "galactose transmembrane transporter activity" (GO:0005354)

Accession: GO:0005354
Name: galactose transmembrane transporter activity
Ontology: molecular_function
Synonyms: galactose/glucose (methylgalactoside) porter activity
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: Enables the transfer of galactose from one side of a membrane to the other. D-galactose is widely distributed in combined form in plants, animals and microorganisms as a constituent of oligo- and polysaccharides; it also occurs in galactolipids and as its glucoside in lactose and melibiose.
