Gene information for GCNT1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2650
Official gene symbolGCNT1
Full nameglucosaminyl (N-acetyl) transferase 1, core 2
Aliases,C2GNT,C2GNT-L,C2GNT1,G6NT,MGC126335,MGC126336,NACGT2,NAGCT2,
Gene summaryThis gene is a member of the beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase gene family. It is essential to the formation of Gal beta 1-3(GlcNAc beta 1-6)GalNAc structures and the core 2 O-glycan branch. The gene coding this enzyme was originally mapped to 9q21, but was later localized to 9q13. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.
