| Function | May catalyze alpha-1,3 glycosidic linkages involved in the expression of Lewis X/SSEA-1 and VIM-2 antigens. |
| Subcellular Location | Golgi apparatus, Golgi stack membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Note=Membrane-bound form in trans cisternae of Golgi. |
| Tissue Specificity | Highest expression in stomach and colon. It is also expressed in the lung, testis, uterus, small intestine and to a lesser extent in spleen, and ovary. Present in trace amounts in brain, thymus, heart, smooth muscle, kidney and bone marrow. Not found in liver, salivary gland and pancreas. |
