1. myo-Inositol was galactosylated by UDP-galactose in the presence of alpha-lactalbumin plus rat mammary Golgi membranes enriched in galactosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.22). 2. The isolated product migrated on GLC as two peaks of material, apparently identical to galactinol (galactosylinositol) isolated from rat milk. 3. These findings make it likely that in vivo lactose synthetase is responsible for converting inositol into galactinol within the Golgi lumen. 4. This is consistent with the ability of inositol to penetrate the Golgi membrane in vitro, and renders less likely a previously proposed role of beta-galactosidase (EC 3.2.1.23) in mammary galactinol synthesis.
