About B4galt2

Summary

Predicted to enable galactosyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within cerebellar Purkinje cell layer development; learning or memory; and locomotory behavior. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in early conceptus; eye; gonad; and nervous system. Orthologous to human B4GALT2 (beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
