CC   -!- FUNCTION: Regulatory subunit of lactose synthase, changes the substrate
CC       specificity of galactosyltransferase in the mammary gland making
CC       glucose a good acceptor substrate for this enzyme. This enables LS to
CC       synthesize lactose, the major carbohydrate component of milk. In other
CC       tissues, galactosyltransferase transfers galactose onto the N-
CC       acetylglucosamine of the oligosaccharide chains in glycoproteins.
CC   -!- SUBUNIT: Lactose synthase (LS) is a heterodimer of a catalytic
CC       component, beta1,4-galactosyltransferase (beta4Gal-T1) and a regulatory
CC       component, alpha-lactalbumin (LA).
CC   -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Mammary gland specific. Secreted in milk.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 22 family.
CC       {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00680}.
