RL Submitted (NOV-2004) to the EMBL/GenBank/DDBJ databases.
CC -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes two distinct but analogous reactions: the
CC reversible epimerization of UDP-glucose to UDP-galactose and the
CC reversible epimerization of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine to UDP-N-
CC acetylgalactosamine. The reaction with UDP-Gal plays a critical role in
CC the Leloir pathway of galactose catabolism in which galactose is
CC converted to the glycolytic intermediate glucose 6-phosphate. It
CC contributes to the catabolism of dietary galactose and enables the
CC endogenous biosynthesis of both UDP-Gal and UDP-GalNAc when exogenous
CC sources are limited. Both UDP-sugar interconversions are important in
CC the synthesis of glycoproteins and glycolipids.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q14376}.
