description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables UDP-galactose:beta-N-acetylglucosamine beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within oligosaccharide biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; male reproductive gland or organ; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human B3GALT2 (beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase 2). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mice for a targeted mutation display hyperactivity, impaired motor coordination, decreased anxiety, increased startle reflexes, and decreased coping response.
