Primary Identifier | MGI:1919327 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 9 | NCBI Gene Number | 72077 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables acetylgalactosaminyl-O-glycosyl-glycoprotein beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within intestinal absorption; kidney morphogenesis; and tissue morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Orthologous to human GCNT3 (glucosaminyl (N-acetyl) transferase 3, mucin type). PHENOTYPE: Homozygote null mice have decreases in core 2 O-glycan structures on cell surfaces, decreased immunoglobulin levels, and disrupted mucosal barrier in the intestines.
