Protein name

N-acetyllactosaminide beta-1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyl-transferase, isoform A

Comment

FUNCTION:Branching enzyme that converts linear into branched poly-N-acetyllactosaminoglycans. Introduces the blood group I antigen during embryonic development. It is closely associated with the development and maturation of erythroid cells. The expression of the blood group I antigen in erythrocytes is determined by isoform C.||CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:UDP-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine + beta-D- galactosyl-1,4-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-R = UDP + N-acetyl-beta-D- glucosaminyl-1,6-beta-D-galactosyl-1,4-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminyl-R.||PATHWAY:Protein modification; protein glycosylation.||SUBCELLULAR LOCATION:Golgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein (By similarity).||ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=3; Comment=Isoforms A, B and C have different exons 1, but identical exons 2 and 3; Name=A; Synonyms=IGNTA, IGNT1; IsoId=Q8N0V5-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=B; Synonyms=IGNTB, IGNT2; IsoId=Q06430-1; Sequence=External; Note=Expressed in lens epithelium
