UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: O43505 (O43505)
Gene Name:
B4GAT1
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human)
Function: Beta-1,4-glucuronyltransferase involved in O-mannosylation of alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1) (PubMed:19587235, PubMed:23359570, PubMed:25279697, PubMed:25279699). Transfers a glucuronic acid (GlcA) residue onto a xylose (Xyl) acceptor to produce the glucuronyl-beta-1,4-xylose-beta disaccharide primer, which is further elongated by LARGE1, during synthesis of phosphorylated O-mannosyl glycan (PubMed:25279697, PubMed:25279699). Phosphorylated O-mannosyl glycan is a carbohydrate structure present in alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1), which is required for binding laminin G-like domain-containing extracellular proteins with high affinity (PubMed:25279697, PubMed:25279699). Required for axon guidance; via its function in O-mannosylation of alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1) (By similarity)
