• Beschreibung: It is one of the few clusters of differentiation that is not a protein and structurally contains a galactose moiety linked α to lactosylceramide. Defects in the enzyme α-galactosidase lead to the buildup of globotriaosylceramide, causing Fabry's disease. The pharmaceutical drug migalastat enhances the function of α-galactosidase and is used to treat Fabry's. Globotriaosylceramide is also one of the targets of Shiga toxin, which is responsible for pathogenicity of enterohemorrhagic E. coli.
