Background:beta-1,4-N-acetyl-galactosaminyltransferase 2(B4GALNT2) Homo sapiens B4GALNT2 catalyzes the last step in the biosynthesis of the human Sd(a) antigen through the addition of an N-acetylgalactosamine residue via a beta-1,4 linkage to a subterminal galactose residue substituted with an alpha-2,3-linked sialic acid. B4GALNT2 also catalyzes the last step in the biosynthesis of the Cad antigen (Montiel et al., 2003 [PubMed 12678917]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008],
Function:function:Involved in the synthesis of the Sd(a) antigen (Sia-alpha2,3-[GalNAc-beta1,4]Gal-beta1,4-GlcNAc), a carbohydrate determinant expressed on erythrocytes, the colonic mucosa and other tissues. Transfers a beta-1,4-linked GalNAc to the galactose residue of an alpha-2,3-sialylated chain.,online information:Beta-1,4 N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2,online information:GlycoGene database,pathway:Protein modification; protein glycosylation.,similarity:Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 2 family.,tissue specificity:Widely expressed. Highly expressed in colon and to a lesser extent in kidney, stomach, ileum and rectum.,
Subcellular Location:Golgi apparatus membrane ; Single-pass type II membrane protein .
Expression:Widely expressed. Highly expressed in colon and to a lesser extent in kidney, stomach, ileum and rectum.
