About B4GALNT1

Cytogenetic location: 12q13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:57,623,409-57,633,201 (from NCBI)

This gene has 16 transcripts (splice variants), 265 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 8.2), endometrium (RPKM 1.8) and 16 other tissues.

Summary

GM2 and GD2 gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids. GalNAc-T is the enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of G(M2) and G(D2) glycosphingolipids. GalNAc-T catalyzes the transfer of GalNAc into G(M3) and G(D3) by a beta-1,4 linkage, resulting in the synthesis of G(M2) and G(D2), respectively. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2013]
