Gene: B3GNT6

Alternate names for this Gene: B3Gn-T6|BGnT-6|beta-1,3-Gn-T6|beta3Gn-T6

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase that adds an N-acetylglucosamine moiety to N-acetylgalactosamine-modified serine or threonine. The encoded enzyme is responsible for creating the core 3 structure of O-glycans, which are important components of mucin-type glycoproteins.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 11

Location in Chromosome : 11q13.5

Description of this Gene: UDP-GlcNAc:betaGal beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 6

Type of Gene: protein-coding
