Gene information for GALNT10 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID55568
Official gene symbolGALNT10
Full nameUDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosamine:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 10 (GalNAc-T10)
Aliases,DKFZp586H0623,FLJ00205,FLJ11715,GALNACT10,PPGALNACT10,PPGANTASE10,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the GalNAc polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferases. These enzymes catalyze the first step in the synthesis of mucin-type oligosaccharides. These proteins transfer GalNAc from UDP-GalNAc to either serine or threonine residues of polypeptide acceptors. The protein encoded by this locus may have increased catalytic activity toward glycosylated peptides compared to activity toward non-glycosylated peptides.
