In enzymology, a glycosaminoglycan galactosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.74) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

UDP-galactose + glycosaminoglycan UDP + D-galactosylglycosaminoglycan

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are UDP-galactose and glycosaminoglycan, whereas its two products are UDP and D-galactosylglycosaminoglycan.

This enzyme belongs to the family of glycosyltransferases, specifically the hexosyltransferases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is UDP-galactose:glycosaminoglycan D-galactosyltransferase. This enzyme is also called uridine diphosphogalactose-mucopolysaccharide galactosyltransferase.

Beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 7 also known as galactosyltransferase I is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the B4GALT7 gene. Galactosyltransferase I catalyzes the synthesis of the glycosaminoglycan-protein linkage in proteoglycans. Proteoglycans in turn are structural components of the extracellular matrix that is found between cells in connective tissues.
