Primary Identifier | MGI:2384394 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 1 | NCBI Gene Number | 227327 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Involved in keratan sulfate biosynthetic process. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human B3GNT7 (UDP-GlcNAc:betaGal beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 7). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit decreased stroma and total cornea thickness.
