About GAL3ST1

Cytogenetic location: 22q12.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 22:30,554,635-30,574,665 (from NCBI)

This gene has 22 transcripts (splice variants), 284 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Biased expression in kidney (RPKM 2.0), duodenum (RPKM 1.8) and 9 other tissues.

Summary

Sulfonation, an important step in the metabolism of many drugs, xenobiotics, Hormones, and neurotransmitters, is catalyzed by sulfotransferases. This gene encodes galactosylceramide sulfotransferase, which catalyzes the sulfation of membrane glycolipids including the final step in the synthesis of sulfatide, a major lipid component of the myelin sheath. This gene exhibits elevated expression in ovarian epithelial carcinoma and the encoded Enzyme exhibits elevated activity in renal cell carcinoma. Mutations in this gene may be associated with reduced Insulin resistance. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
