The biosynthesis of glycoconjugates from galactose in the human gastric mucous membrane.
Pieces of human gastric mucosa were incubated with labeled galactose. The ratio of glucosamine-galactosamine radioactivity in human gastric glycoconjugates, after incubation of the tissue with labeled galactose, was similar to that of the two compounds after incubation with labeled glucose.
