| ncRNA Symbol: | B3GAT3 | | Full Name: | beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 3 | | Category: | mRNA | | Synonyms: | GLCATI|JDSCD|glcUAT-I | | Chromosome: | chr11 | | Strand: | - | | Coordinate: | | Start Site(bp): | 62615296 | End Site(bp): | 62622175 | | | Gene Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the glucuronyltransferase gene family, enzymes that exhibit strict acceptor specificity, recognizing nonreducing terminal sugars and their anomeric linkages. This gene product catalyzes the formation of the glycosaminoglycan-protein linkage by way of a glucuronyl transfer reaction in the final step of the biosynthesis of the linkage region of proteoglycans. A pseudogene of this gene has been identified on chromosome 3. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013] | | External Links: | |
