Gene symbol GALNT6
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
GALNAC-T6GalNAcT6
Chromosome 12
Chromosome location 12q13.13
Summary This gene encodes a member of the UDP-N-acetyl-alpha-D-galactosamine:polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (GalNAc-T) family of enzymes. GalNAc-Ts initiate mucin-type O-linked glycosylation in the Golgi apparatus by catalyzing the transfer of GalN
