Summary
GLT8D1 (glycosyltransferase 8 domain containing 1, HGNC:24870) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 3p21.1, encoding Glycosyltransferase 8 domain-containing protein 1 (Q68CQ7). In vitro, catalyzes the transfer of a galactose residue from UDP-galactose onto GalNAc and GlcNAc structures.
This gene encodes a member of the glycosyltransferase family. The specific function of this protein has not been determined. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene
