description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables UDP-galactose:beta-N-acetylglucosamine beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within oligosaccharide biosynthetic process. 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.
