Primary Identifier | MGI:1196396 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 13478 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-dolichyl-phosphate N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in UDP-N-acetylglucosamine metabolic process; dolichol metabolic process; and dolichol-linked oligosaccharide biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be active in membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital disorder of glycosylation Ij and congenital myasthenic syndrome 13. Orthologous to human DPAGT1 (dolichyl-phosphate N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a disruption in this gene display an embryonic lethal phenotype due to widespread cell death. [provided by MGI curators] |
