Gene nameB3GNT8
Protein nameUDP-GlcNAc:betaGal beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 8 (BGnT-8) (Beta-1,3-Gn-T8) (Beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 8) (Beta3Gn-T8) (EC 2.4.1.-)
SynonymsB3GALT7
BGALT15
DescriptionFUNCTION: Beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase that plays a role in the elongation of specific branch structures of multiantennary N-glycans. Has strong activity towards tetraantennary N-glycans and 2,6 triantennary glycans. .
