α4Gn-T Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

This gene encodes a protein from the glycosyltransferase 32 family. The enzyme catalyzes the transfer of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to core 2 branched O-glycans. It forms a unique glycan, GlcNAcalpha1-->4Galbeta-->R and is largely associated with the Golgi apparatus membrane. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008], domain:The conserved DXD motif is involved in enzyme activity., function:Necessary for the synthesis of type III mucin. Catalyzes the transfer of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to core 2 branched O-glycans., online information:Alpha-1,4-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase, online information:GlycoGene database, pathway:Protein modification; protein glycosylation., similarity:Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 32 family., tissue specificity:Detected in stomach and pancreas.
