Gene: B3GALT5

Alternate names for this Gene: B3GalT-V|B3GalTx|B3T5|GLCT5|beta-1,3-GalTase 5|beta-3-Gx-T5|beta3Gal-T5

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of a family of membrane-bound glycoproteins. The encoded protein may synthesize type 1 Lewis antigens, which are elevated in gastrointestinal and pancreatic cancers. Alternatively spliced transcript variants using multiple alternate promoters have been observed for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 21

Location in Chromosome : 21q22.2
