Comment typeDescription
CofactorName=Mn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29035; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:9417047};
FunctionBeta-1,3-galactosyltransferase that transfers galactose from UDP-galactose to substrates with a terminal beta-N- acetylglucosamine (beta-GlcNAc) residue. Can also utilize substrates with a terminal galactose residue, albeit with lower efficiency. Involved in the biosynthesis of the carbohydrate moieties of glycolipids and glycoproteins. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9417047}.
PathwayProtein modification; protein glycosylation.
SimilarityBelongs to the glycosyltransferase 31 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationGolgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
Tissue SpecificityDetected in brain and heart. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9417047}.
