Summary: Enables UDP-galactose:beta-N-acetylglucosamine beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase activity. Acts upstream of or within oligosaccharide biosynthetic process. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; male reproductive gland or organ; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human B3GALT2 (beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

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.
