UniProt data
UniProt name: MGT4A_HUMAN (Q9UM21)
Gene name: MGAT4A
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Glycosyltransferase that participates in the transfer of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to the core mannose residues of N- linked glycans. Catalyzes the formation of the GlcNAcbeta1-4 branch on the GlcNAcbeta1-2Manalpha1-3 arm of the core structure of N-linked glycans. Essential for the production of tri- and tetra-antennary N-linked sugar chains. Involved in glucose transport by mediating SLC2A2/GLUT2 glycosylation, thereby controlling cell-surface expression of SLC2A2 in pancreatic beta cells.
Subcellular location: Alpha-1,3-mannosyl-glycoprotein 4-beta-N- acetylglucosaminyltransferase A soluble form: Secreted {ECO:0000250}.
Transmembrane domains:
- 5-27, 23 AA, Helical; Signal-anchor for type II membrane protein. {ECO:0000255}.
Sequence: 535 AA
