glycosyltransferase 8 domain containing 1

This gene encodes a member of the glycosyltransferase family. The specific function of this protein has not been determined. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

exostosin glycosyltransferase 2

This gene encodes one of two glycosyltransferases involved in the chain elongation step of heparan sulfate biosynthesis. Mutations in this gene cause the type II form of multiple exostoses. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

exostosin glycosyltransferase 1

This gene encodes an endoplasmic reticulum-resident type II transmembrane glycosyltransferase involved in the chain elongation step of heparan sulfate biosynthesis. Mutations in this gene cause the type I form of multiple exostoses. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

glycosyltransferase 1 domain containing 1

Predicted to enable glycosyltransferase activity. Located in cytosol. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

like-glycosyltransferase

This gene encodes a member of the N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase gene family. It encodes a glycosyltransferase which participates in glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan, and may carry out the synthesis of glycoprotein and glycosphingolipid sugar chains. It may also be involved in the addition of a repeated disaccharide unit. The protein encoded by this gene is the glycotransferase that adds the final xylose and glucuronic acid to alpha-dystroglycan and thereby allows alpha-dystroglycan to bind ligands including laminin 211 and neurexin. Mutations in this gene cause several forms of congenital muscular dystrophy characterized by cognitive disability and abnormal glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, May 2018]

UDP glycosyltransferase 8

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the UDP-glycosyltransferase family. It catalyzes the transfer of galactose to ceramide, a key enzymatic step in the biosynthesis of galactocerebrosides, which are abundant sphingolipids of the myelin membrane of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]

exostosin-like glycosyltransferase 1

This gene is a member of the multiple exostoses (EXT) family of glycosyltransferases, which function in the chain polymerization of heparan sulfate and heparin. The encoded protein harbors alpha 1,4- N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity, and is involved in chain elongation of heparan sulfate and possibly heparin. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

exostosin-like glycosyltransferase 2

Enables alpha-1,4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase activity and glucuronyl-galactosyl-proteoglycan 4-alpha-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Involved in N-acetylglucosamine metabolic process and UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine metabolic process. Located in cytosol; endoplasmic reticulum; and nucleoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

exostosin-like glycosyltransferase 3

This gene encodes a single-pass membrane protein which functions as a glycosyltransferase. The encoded protein catalyzes the transfer of N-acetylglucosamine to glycosaminoglycan chains. This reaction is important in heparin and heparan sulfate synthesis. Alternative splicing results in the multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]

UDP glycosyltransferase 3 family, polypeptide A2

Enables UDP-glycosyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to genistein. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine transferase complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

UDP glycosyltransferase 3 family, polypeptide A1

Enables glucuronosyltransferase activity. Part of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine transferase complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

glycosyltransferase 6 domain containing 1

The GT6 glycosyltransferases gene family, which includes the ABO blood group (ABO; MIM 110300) and GLT6D1, shows a complex evolution pattern, with multiple events of gain and loss in different mammal species. In humans, the ABO gene is considered the sole functional member, although the O allele is null and is fixed in certain populations (summary by Casals et al. (2009) [PubMed 19218399]).[supplied by OMIM, Jan 2011]

glycosyltransferase-like domain containing 1

Enables tRNA-queuosine(34) beta-mannosyltransferase activity. Involved in regulation of translation and tRNA modification. Located in nucleus. Is active in cytoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

dolichyl-diphosphooligosaccharide--protein glycosyltransferase subunit (non-catalytic)

This gene encodes a component of the oligosaccharyltransferase complex which catalyzes the transfer of high-mannose oligosaccharides to asparagine residues on nascent polypeptides in the lumen of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The protein complex co-purifies with ribosomes. The product of this gene is also implicated in the processing of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs), which form from non-enzymatic reactions between sugars and proteins or lipids and are associated with aging and hyperglycemia.
