Function | Probably catalyzes the initial reaction in O-linked oligosaccharide biosynthesis, the transfer of an N-acetyl-D- galactosamine residue to a serine or threonine residue on the protein receptor. {ECO:0000250}. |
Subcellular Location | Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. |
Tissue Specificity | Widely expressed. Expressed in heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, liver, small intestine and placenta. Weakly expressed in colon, thymus, spleen, lung and leukocyte. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10767557}. |
Top Pathways | Mucin type O-Glycan biosynthesis |
