1 The α-Galactosyl Epitope: A Sugar Coating That Makes Viruses and Cells Unpalatable 
Russell P Rother, Stephen P Squinto  Cell  Volume 86, Issue 2, Pages (July 1996) DOI: /S (00)

2 Figure 1 Terminal Enzymatic Reactions Leading to the Generation of the α-Galactosyl Epitope or H-Antigen (A) Transfer of UDP-galactose to the N-acetyllactosaminyl group in an α1–3 linkage. (B) Transfer of UDP-fucose to the N-acetyllactosaminyl group in an α1–2 linkage. The bolded arrow signifies the dominance of α1–2fucosyl transferase over α1–3galactosyl transferase in competing for the common N-acetyllactosaminyl acceptor group. Cell  , DOI: ( /S (00) )
