Gene information for C1GALT1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID56913
Official gene symbolC1GALT1
Full namecore 1 synthase, glycoprotein-N-acetylgalactosamine 3-beta-galactosyltransferase, 1
Aliases,C1GALT,T-synthase,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene generates the common core 1 O-glycan structure, Gal-beta-1-3GalNAc-R, by the transfer of Gal from UDP-Gal to GalNAc-alpha-1-R. Core 1 is a precursor for many extended mucin-type O-glycans on cell surface and secreted glycoproteins. Studies in mice suggest that this gene plays a key role in thrombopoiesis and kidney homeostasis.
