Summary
Predicted to enable N-acetyllactosaminide beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in poly-N-acetyllactosamine biosynthetic process and protein O-linked glycosylation. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane. Orthologous to human B3GNT3 (UDP-GlcNAc:betaGal beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
