Summary
Enables beta-1,4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase activity. Involved in positive regulation of Notch signaling pathway; protein glycosylation; and response to toxic substance. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital disorder of glycosylation and congenital disorder of glycosylation type IId. Orthologous to several human genes including B4GALT1 (beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 1) and B4GALT3 (beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Oct 2024]
