Hexosyltransferases

Hexosyltransferases

Hexosyltransferases are a type of glycosyltransferase that catalyze the transfer of a hexose.

Examples include:
* glucosyltransferases - transfer glucose
* galactosyltransferases - transfer galactose
* fucosyltransferases - transfer fucose
* glucuronosyltransferase - transfer glucuronic acid

They are classified under EC number 2.4.1.
