a These are apparent values, determined by varying the concentration of one substrate at a fixed concentration (1 mm) of the second. Ka is the apparent Km for UDP-GalNAc or UDP-Gal, and Kb is the apparent Km for 2′-fucosyllactose; kcat (app) is calculated from the apparent Vm determined by varying 2′-fucosyllactose at 1 mm UDP-GalNAc or UDP-Gal.

b Activity relative to that of wild-type enzyme with UDP-Gal as substrate.
