CAZypedia needs your help!
We have many unassigned pages in need of Authors and Responsible Curators. See a page that's out-of-date and just needs a touch-up? - You are also welcome to become a CAZypedian. Here's how.
Scientists at all career stages, including students, are welcome to contribute.

Glycosyltransferase Families
This pages lists all the Glycosyltransferase (GT) Family pages in CAZypedia that have been given Curator Approved status, as well as those that are currently under construction.
The Lexicon entry Glycosyltransferases contains an introduction and overview to this class of enzymes. The classification mirrors that of the CAZy database [1], which itself is based on the sequence-based families of glycosyltransferases as described in [2, 3, 4, 5].
