Summary
Predicted to enable galactosyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in galactosylceramide biosynthetic process and glycosylation. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; eye; genitourinary system; nervous system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human B4GALT3 (beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 3). [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.
