For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOBP_GALACTOSE_METABOLIC_PROCESS

Standard name GOBP_GALACTOSE_METABOLIC_PROCESS
Systematic name MM4564
Brief description The chemical reactions and pathways involving galactose, the aldohexose galacto-hexose. D-galactose is widely distributed in combined form in plants, animals and microorganisms as a constituent of oligo- and polysaccharides; it also occurs in galactolipids and as its glucoside in lactose and melibiose.
