Gene:
UDP-GlcNAc:betaGal beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 1
Gene ID:
191707
Symbol:
B3GNT1
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene encodes an enzyme that is a member of the beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase family. This enzyme is a type II transmembrane protein. It prefers the substrate of lacto-N-neotetraose, and is involved in the biosynthesis of poly-N-acetyllactosamine chains. Two alternatively splicing transcript variants are identified from this gene and encode the same protein product.
