Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityUDP-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.
FunctionBranching 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.
PathwayProtein modification; protein glycosylation.
SimilarityBelongs to the glycosyltransferase 14 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationGolgi apparatus membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein.
