Summary
Predicted to enable beta-galactosyl-N-acetylglucosaminylgalactosylglucosyl-ceramide beta-1,3-acetylglucosaminyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in brain development. Predicted to act upstream of or within sphingolipid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; eye; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and nervous system. Orthologous to human B3GNT5 (UDP-GlcNAc:betaGal beta-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
