CA 19-9, equivalent to Sialyl Lewis antigen, is a well-known tumor marker in pancreatic cancer. At the initial step of the biosynthesis of CA 19-9, N-acetylglucosamine-beta1,3-galactosyltransferase (beta3Gal-T) transfers galactose to N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc). Recently, beta3Gal-T5 has been presumed to be related to the formation of the type 1 chain in an in vitro experiment in terms of kinetic enzyme characterization. The purpose of this study was to investigate which beta3Gal-T is related to the synthesis of CA 19-9 in human pancreatic cancer tissues.
