| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables beta-1,4-mannosylglycoprotein 4-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of lysosomal protein catabolic process; positive regulation of protein localization to early endosome; and protein N-linked glycosylation. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane and lysosome. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; metanephros; and nervous system. Orthologous to human MGAT3 (beta-1,4-mannosyl-glycoprotein 4-beta-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit reduced DEN and PB-induced hepatic tumors and reduced hepatocyte proliferation. [provided by MGI curators] |
