Galactinol synthase is involved in the biosynthesis of raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs) that function as osmoprotectants in plants. In Arabidopsis thaliana, seven GOLS (Galactinol synthase) genes and three putative GOLS genes have been identified, and different induction patterns have been reported.
