Gene name

A4GALT (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

A14GALT, Gb3S, P(k)

Description

Alpha 1,4-galactosyltransferase (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the transfer of galactose to lactosylceramide to form globotriaosylceramide, which has been identified as the P(k) antigen of the P blood group system. The encoded protein, which is a type II membrane protein found in the Golgi, is also required for the synthesis of the bacterial verotoxins receptor. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
