Target Details for GALNT2

Target: GALNT2 (UDP-N-Acetyl-alpha-D-Galactosamine:polypeptide N-Acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 (GalNAc-T2) (GALNT2))

Alternative Name: GALNT2

Background:

Background: Polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GALNT2 gene. This gene encodes a member of the glycosyltransferase 2 protein family. Members of this family initiate mucin-type O-glycoslation of peptides in the Golgi apparatus. The encoded protein may be involved in O-linked glycosylation of the immunoglobulin A1 hinge region. This gene may influence triglyceride levels, and may be involved Type 2 diabetes, as well as several types of cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Gene Full Name: polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2

Gene ID: 2590

UniProt: Q10471

Pathways: Production of Molecular Mediator of Immune Response
