GALNT8 Proteins
(UDP-N-Acetyl-alpha-D-Galactosamine:polypeptide N-Acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 8 (GalNAc-T8) (GALNT8))
This gene encodes a member of the UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosamine:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GalNAc-T) family of enzymes. GalNAc-Ts initiate mucin-type O-linked glycosylation in the Golgi apparatus by catalyzing the transfer of GalNAc to serine and threonine residues on target proteins. They are characterized by an N-terminal transmembrane domain, a stem region, a lumenal catalytic domain containing a GT1 motif and Gal\\/GalNAc transferase motif, and a C-terminal ricin\\/lectin-like domain. GalNAc-Ts have different, but overlapping, substrate specificities and patterns of expression. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
