Gene nameB3GALNT2
Protein nameBeta-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2
UDP-GalNAc:beta-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 (Beta-1,3-GalNAc-T2) (EC 2.4.1.313) (Beta-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase II)
Hexosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.-)
Synonyms
DescriptionFUNCTION: Beta-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase that synthesizes a unique carbohydrate structure, GalNAc-beta-1-3GlcNAc, on N- and O-glycans. Has no galactose nor galactosaminyl transferase activity toward any acceptor substrate. Involved in alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1) glycosylation: acts coordinately with GTDC2/POMGnT2 to synthesize a GalNAc-beta3-GlcNAc-beta-terminus at the 4-position of protein O-mannose in the biosynthesis of the phosphorylated O-mannosyl trisaccharide (N-acetylgalactosamine-beta-3-N-acetylglucosamine-beta-4-(phosphate-6-)mannose), a carbohydrate structure present in alpha-dystroglycan, which is required for binding laminin G-like domain-containing extracellular proteins with high affinity. .
