Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function 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. Has a much stronger activity than GALNT1 to transfer GalNAc to mucin peptides, such as Muc5Ac and Muc7. Able to glycosylate SDC3. Probably responsible for the synthesis of Tn antigen in neuronal cells. {ECO:0000269PubMed:12407114, ECO:0000269PubMed:8618846}.
Subcellular Localization Golgi apparatus membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Specifically expressed in neuronal cells. Not expressed in glial cells such as astrocytes. Expressed at low level. {ECO:0000269PubMed:12407114, ECO:0000269PubMed:12651884}.
