The former enzymes are subcategorized into galacto-N-biose phosphorylase, (GNBP) [3], lacto-N-biose I phosphorylase (LNBP) [4], and galacto-N-biose/lacto-N-biose I phosphorylase (GLNBP) [1,4,5] based on the substrate preference on galacto-N-biose (GNB, Gal-β1,3-GalNAc) and lacto-N-biose I (LNB, Gal-β1,3-GlcNAc) [4].
