Summary: Predicted to enable N-acetyllactosamine synthase activity and UDP-galactose:glucosylceramide beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including ganglioside biosynthetic process via lactosylceramide; neurogenesis; and positive regulation of embryonic development. Predicted to act upstream of or within poly-N-acetyllactosamine biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi cisterna membrane and Golgi membrane. Predicted to be active in Golgi apparatus. Orthologous to human B4GALT5 (beta-1,4-galactosyltransferase 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

beta1,4-GalT I and V might play important roles in the regeneration of the injured sciatic nerve.
Title: Expression change of beta-1,4 galactosyltransferase I, V mRNAs and Galbeta1,4GlcNAc group in rat sciatic nerve after crush.
These results indicated that the expressions of beta1,4-GalT I, V mRNAs and Galbeta1-4GlcNAc group were involved in the process of denervation and reinnervation.
Title: The expression patterns of beta1,4 galactosyltransferase I and V mRNAs, and Galbeta1-4GlcNAc group in rat gastrocnemius muscles post sciatic nerve injury.
These results suggest that an autocrine loop involving TNF-alpha, TNFR1 and TNFR2 contributes to the production of beta-1,4-GalT I and V mRNA in response to inflammation.
Title: The role of TNF-alpha and its receptors in the production of beta-1,4 galactosyltransferase I and V mRNAs by rat primary astrocytes.

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.
