AmiGO 2: Term Details for "galactose transmembrane transport" (GO:0015757)

Accession: GO:0015757
Name: galactose transmembrane transport
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: galactose transport
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The process in which galactose is transported across a lipid bilayer, 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.
