About GAL3ST4

Cytogenetic location: 7q22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:100,159,244-100,168,617 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 202 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in skin (RPKM 11.3), salivary gland (RPKM 5.3) and 21 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the galactose-3-O-sulfotransferase protein family. The product of this gene catalyzes sulfonation by transferring a sulfate to the C-3' position of galactose residues in O-linked glycoproteins. This Enzyme is highly specific for core 1 structures, with asialofetuin, Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc and Gal-beta-1,3 (GlcNAc-beta-1,6)GalNAc being good substrates. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
