Major reactions of galactose catabolism. The four enzymes of the Leloir Pathway (GALM, GALK, GALT, and GALE) are presented in red font. Enzymes that provide alternative or bypass routes of galactose catabolism are presented in blue font. The four UDP sugars listed are all key substrates for glycosylation. Inherited deficiencies of GALM, GALK, GALT, or GALE result in the primary disorders of galactosemia catabolism.
