Primary Identifier | MGI:2684919 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 13 | NCBI Gene Number | 218476 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including inter-male aggressive behavior; neutrophil homeostasis; and thyroid hormone metabolic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Orthologous to human GCNT4 (glucosaminyl (N-acetyl) transferase 4). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele display neutrophilia, increased aggression towards males, reduced serum thyroxine levels, and altered O-glycan structures in the stomach, colon, and small intestine.
