Summary
Predicted to enable UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase activity and unfolded protein binding activity. Involved in IRE1-mediated unfolded protein response; regulation of embryonic development; and regulation of nematode larval development. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum. Orthologous to human UGGT1 (UDP-glucose glycoprotein glucosyltransferase 1) and UGGT2 (UDP-glucose glycoprotein glucosyltransferase 2).
