Galactocerebrosides are abundant sphingolipids of thenmyelin membrane of the central nervous system and peripheralnnervous system and are also present in small amounts in kidney. Thenkey enzymatic step in the biosynthesis of galactocerebrosidesnconsists of the transfer of galactose to ceramide catalyzed bynUDP-galactose ceramide galactosyltransferase (CGT, EC 2.4.1.45).nThe enzyme encoded by the CGT gene is the first involved in complexnlipid biosynthesis in the myelinating oligodendrocyte.[supplied bynOMIM].
