About Ggta1

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the galactosyltransferase family of intracellular, membrane-bound Enzymes that are involved in the biosynthesis of glycoproteins and glycolipids. The encoded protein catalyzes the transfer of galactose from UDP-galactose to N-acetyllactosamine in an alpha(1,3) linkage to form galactose alpha(1,3)-galactose. Mice lacking the encoded protein develop cortical cataracts. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2015]
